    Bought my '05 R53 last year w/ 97K on odometer but blown engine as 2nd owner. Production date of 10/04. Replaced engine w/ '05 and 45K on the clock. Was never fond of Mini until last year when I needed a small commute car, now I love my Mini!!!

    Hi there - Just got back from a 3 week trip to the n/w. Never seen so many Mini's in my life! I bought my 2003 S after ordering my special package(s) and waiting for nearly 3 months. It just turned 30,000 and is being loved and updated for my son when he graduates from college next year.:beer:beer Black and silver with yellow calipers, yellow mirror caps and a yellow accent stripe down the middle of my black competition stripes on the hood and rear deck. A looker!
