As a new member just wanting to say HI! My love affair with MINIs started when my wife and I test-drove an '11 R57 convertible 3 years ago and couldn't leave the dealership without it, it became her car :wink:. I traded-in my '02 VW Beetle Turbo S that I'd heavily modified, but knew it was time to give-it-up for this chili-red topless beauty. Since then I've been waiting for the right MINI for myself when a couple of months ago this Cman popped up at a local dealership, an '12 R60S All4 with only 20k miles, that was just the right color combo. Looking forward to taking both to MITO in a couple of months.
