I feel like it's just right to start with an introduction. I have attached my Mini for your reference.

Hi, and, WELCOME to M/A!

Don't be a stranger...tell us about yourself, please. We are here to help solve MINI/Mini problems whenever we can.

 

I'm Jeb, a 68yo Hardcore car freak going into the second half of a century of car freakishness. I have an insatiable curiosity about cars and what makes them work and I love to learn new stuff.

I'm related by blood and marriage to two JCW GPs.

I have an '06 R53 project that I don't even know what all it needs but I got it 'cause of engine failure.

I have a couple customers with Minis and started working on them due to a complete dearth of shops that work on Minis.

And so the adventure begins, more to come.......

Welcome, love the wet look to that paint job!

 

I'm baaaack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

My computer died of multiple viruses and old age. I had to get a new one and reload ALL my addresses. I am STILL having major problems...seems as if I will have to CALL my email company and have them figure out why the password they accepted in early October is no longer accepted now.

 

I had to get a new computer and took it to a computer store in Troy to get it set up. No more calls to India I hope. These guys are LLC and are close by. That said, I still have a lot of resetting to do here, but things are looking better, I hope.

 

Hello to all you fellow motor heads. I'm always looking for or sharing information about Minis, and more specifically R53's. I own a 2002 MCS. Over the years, I have auto crossed my S in SCCA in the "G Stock class". Now retired, I am no longer a active "weekend warrior", but still seek some fun with my car. I have added a few mods to pep up the little bugger, and plan to join in on some Mini group doings in 2017. I look forward to being a Alliance member and sharing with the rest of you.

Hello MA World!

I've been on minif56.com for a couple of years, but I've lurked here and found the forum informative and useful. Thought I'd up my fanboy game and join MA.

Started with a 2010 R56 S. Added a JCW tune. Loved the car. Blew the engine. MINI comped me an engine so in gratitude I bought an F56 S, with Sports Suspension and not much else. Love the car, but it just isn't quite there.

Pulled the trigger on a 2017 JCW hardtop. It's on the ship creeping across the Atlantic as we speak. This time around I went ahead and specced more options since I have spent the last 2 years trying to figure out how to retrofit all the cool stuff without letting some ape attack my car with his angle grinder. Important option, 18" wheels.

But most important, I'm having the dealer install the JCW Pro coilovers and the NM engineering 25mm rear sway bar. (this mostly thanks to @Ryephile's awesome unboxing thread). When I take delivery it will be about 1" lower and a wee bit more go-karty. Planning a NM tune once the car is run in.

I love MINI, all years and models. The community of MINI fans is awesome.
