    I could probably hand out a dozen or so to get them to sign up on MA. How many Canadian members do we have? Am I the only one staying fairly active here? No need to go through all the trouble to do a custom logo just for me. I was thinking of a more international flag. Perhaps St James Cross. I do like the look of the US flag on it though, but it might not fly very well on this side of the 49th.

    Beside Canada be cold as hell, have the USA as your southern neighbor has kept Canada from being invaded.

    Other countries tend to not invade counties that have World Super powers as neighbors. ( Same goes for Mexico)

    Plus we are Back to Back World War Champions. ..... just saying. :D:D:eek::rolleyes::p:p

    We are being nice Dad. :p Lee

    Anyhow why not replace the Union Jack with a German flag, Since they are owned by BMW and have more BMW parts than British parts. :rolleyes::D

    Woke up to a flooded basement as a pipe burst in the garage. Water everywhere, even filling up an 18 drawer metal parts rack. Had to move the MINI and found a big puddle of fresh oil underneath. I drove it a few days ago and no oil. Going into the dealer.on Monday. I trust the tech there that works on my car. Not been a good day so far. I have no Idea how much stuff is ruined in the basement. UGG !!!!!

    Thanks Son!:p

    Actually you may have a good point. A german flag on one side and a Union Jack on the other.

    All MINI's have had or will have leaking PS hoses, it's just the way they are. I like those wheels, but you need tires with more sidewall. ;)

    That tire is the elusive 205/0/R17 Pirelli Absolute Zero.

    Thanks a bunch. I was wondering about the size. I found a ton on Tire Rack, Tire Discounters, and Cheap Tires...but I can't decide which one to get. Would you please search and tell me which tire would be best. I'd really appreciate it...

    I watched it get towed away..... One of the two happiest days of an N14 mini owner's life.

    Did you ever find the problem? Or just had enough?

    There comes a time where one needs to cut their losses. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you, but man you really tried. I understand.

    I give people the “Philly, one finger salute” when they wave at me. The whole wave thing is stupid.
