    Welcome to M/A!:Thumbsup:

    I can't offer any help at all, as all my MINIs [3] are Gen 1, but it's nice to see people are still interested in our cars! Again, WELCOME!!

    Welcome to MA! :cornut:

    Can't wait to see pics, sounds like a nice color combination!

    I know in the past, there were rebates by the power company and local state governments that would essentially make the install of the charging station free. I did a quick search, here is a link to what i found:
    Original Rebate:
    http://mde.maryland.gov/marylandgreen/Documents/EV_dealershipflyer_online.pdf
    Updated Rebate:
    http://energy.maryland.gov/transportation/Pages/incentives_evserebate.aspx

    If you can get rebates for the car and for the equipment install I would consider doing that.. even if it works off a normal plug. That way you have it for the future.. not matter which car you get. :idea:


    Yea.. that is a bit swing. Think you know what my answer would be about that.. :beer

    There's not many other EV MINI owners out there, I think you're the first I've seen in a forum.

    I'd recommend installing a higher power charging station, it'll charge MUCH faster. Folks that have pure electrics swear by them.
