Fine looking motor! Sure glad to hear you've reversed the disastrous results of irresponsible ownership. These require frequent attention to details and in return they will provide unparalleled motoring enjoyment.

Welcome Aboard! Great looking car. I'm sure you'll get it sorted out and enjoy driving it even more.
I always tell people MINIs are for enthusiasts that enjoy driving and tinkering. -
Welcome to MA! I feel your pain. My Mini and I were suppose to take a trip to Texas to visit family this week, but she decided it was time for a new clutch instead.

Thank you all for the warm welcome! It is a kind of car that gets under your skin. I get to park it outside my window at my office and I find myself a little distracted looking at it sometimes. My wife thinks it a money pit, but without it being a true midlife crisis car, it scratches my itch to have something I can customize a little bit, has a fun style and attitude, and makes me smile when I drive it!

Driving me crazy literally...
Aaaaannnd now I'm sitting in my mechanics lounge while they do another smoke test on the whole vacuum system for the second time this week! Danged CEL haunts my night and day dreams about the car at this point!
I'll tell more in another thread under 2nd gen Minis where I'm going to ask ya all questions about this vexing issue.
I'm hoping somebody has had some success with the problem of getting a CEL under acceleration and going to limp mode but throwing no codes... Sort of. -
