Hello All, Great Website Nathan!! I am an impulsive 18 year old trapped in a 60 year old body and just this week have decided I have to have a JCW. I live in South Texas (Refugio) and have found there are dealers in Austin, Houston, and SA. Anyone have recommendations as to who provides the best deals/service/support?? Thanks
Welcome, and thanks... The dealer in SA has never gotten good marks from people. However with the new dealership recently opening in Austin they stand to lose all those people that made the trek from Austin to SA, so they may be doing a better game these days. The Austin dealer is pretty new and there has not been much said about them. Thats a good thing as when people are slighted they talk about it more. In this case silence may be golden. The only dealer I've dealt with in Houston is MINI of The Woodlands. They seem competent but who knows. Hopefully some of the other South Texas owners will chime in with their thoughts.
Thanks for the heads-up Nathan. The Woodlands folks have been a pleasure to deal with. I pick up my 2011 JCW Hardtop tomorrow. I have never even looked inside a Mini much less driven one. Looking forward to a fun ride home.
As excited as a kid on Christmas Eve. In my younger days have had MG Midget, 260Z, various Jeeps and uncountable Bikes-rice burners and Harleys. Time to start feeling the road again!!!!!!
As I am sure you know. Life is too short to drive a boring car. Enjoy your new MINI. Now go pick that bad boy up! :beer I just realized you had bought one.
