    I started with a Google search to look up the new MINI dealer here in Colorado and came across Motoringalliance. I'm looking for a forum that is aimed more toward Coopers than what AutomotiveForums.com has.

    Glad you found us. There is a very active club out of Denver as well, MINI5280. You will find a Club Forum from MINI5280 here on M/A as well as links to the club site in the Clubs listing found in the Nav Bar under Clubs.

    I found it as a link from FES-auto.com.

    Looks like a good active board. Almost as active as nemini.org.

    Was told about the site from some fellow MINI buds, and how its not a communist run regime like NAM is. :rolleyes:

    After many many years of being on NAM, I was banned for merely mentioning someones product that they were considering producing for the MINI community. :mad5:

    NAM seriously has some issues and hopefully the grass is greener over here! :Thumbsup:

    Through MINI5280. This looks like a very nice site, hopefully we can get most of our members posting over here.
