    Took the plunge Friday after repeated issues with my wife's '12 TDI Golf. Purchased a '15 Cooper S in Iced Choco Brown with black roof. Manual, of course. This will be our second. While stationed in Deutschland, I owned an R55 S that enjoyed the Nurburgring on occasion.
    Yes, the looks are questionable, but I do like the lack of rattles and the composed ride on CO roads are welcomed.

    Oh, and her name is Taquasha.

    Thanks for the warm welcome, and yes, an addiction, to say the least.

    Germarican, how long till the wife losses her mini? :D

    First you will borrow it every once and a while. Then it will happen more often. Next you will Mod it, to help her of course. Then one day it happens. She comes out to go somewhere in her New Mini and its gone.............and there you are, a simile on your face on some twisty road in your......oops I meant her mini!

    Save your marriage go get your own Mini!!:lol:

    Actually, as fate would have it, SHE feels it would be best if SHE drives my Touareg to work most days because it has a slush box. I agree with her suggestion, of course.
