    1. Dipstick What is this thing? Where is full? Or empty? What? There is a solution to this:*The MINI Dipstick from CravenSpeed. 2.*Every single time With the water. 3. And Sometimes I forget to do this. So*when I get back in the MINI and close the door, I reach for the seatbelt and find this. […]

    My 2003 R50 oem metal dipstick works great.
    Not sure why they screwed with the poor design on the other models.

    Don't use OEM seatbelts, use harness, problem solved.:Thumbsup:

    Park car in garage, no wet seats. :prrr:

    Do not need a sport button with and LSD and RMW tune and Helix parts and build quality.

    I can use the MINI regular dipstick because my father showed me how to maintain a car.

    I have a 1st Gen so I don't have that god forsaken Boop Dee Boop sound in my MINI. (Thank God)

    I removed the MINI "beach chair" seats and installed real Recaro seats. I don't need them heated, I am not a wuss.

    I drive with DCS off all the time because I can drive without modern "nanny" features.
    ** I don't need hill assist either.

    I do not need my phone connected to my car when I drive. I pay attention when I drive and do not need to be plugged into social media 24x7. (Twitter, Facebook and everything else)

    #1 question asked "Is that fast, and does it get good MPG?"

    My reply is always. "If that is your first question a MINI is not for you."



    P.S. I also like pulling up to new Corvettes, Mustangs, and Camaros and saying "cute car you have, sorry about your penis size"

    Seriously!! The most annoying questions! My response.... Call me an a hole..... But a lot of random people come up and ask me so often that I've gotten to the point of just saying, "I honestly don't car about gas mileage." Straight to there face with a grimacing smile of course. And come back to them with "I'm more about performance." So they don't think I'm being a total ars. Unless they really catch me on a bad day.
