Hi Guys,
Just got Mini number 2 last month and am loving it! Still got the Cooper, even if it has got the CVT 'box. Does anyone else have one?
Totally in love with my new One. I live in the West of Scotland and I'm in Glasgow pretty much every day but mainly in the west end.
I've been watching the Mini2 forum for a while and I've just started posting on it. I've also signed up for the Cullen run in July, even if it is ages away, plenty of degree exam related stuff to think about in the meantime.

Hope to see you guys around,

Jonny

End of essay. :D

Yup will vouch for Wul's comments , no need for MINI2 when we're all here. Picked up my MC in June & been on 3 runs so far. Great bunch of people & can't wait for the 2005 season to begin. Welcome aboard NMS & enjoy.

Well, Just taken the Cooper to Henry bros. I'm vvv sad, it needs a new steering column+ a gearbox overhaul, poo! At least mine's perfect.( And cooler looking too!). Cheers for the welcome too, the site's well useful and u guys seem great too.

Ahh - an 02 cooper with a dodgy steering column - my 02 cooper was back in 3-4 times before I finally got rid of it for an S. Hope it gets sorted mate.

Hiya Jonny. I'm over the west end quite a lot. If you see a yellow 'S with fat vipers (theres a pic in one of the threads) give me a wave! :D

My 02 Cooper has had three steering columns.....

Henry Bros need watching on the service and repair front - not quite the full shilling sometimes. Just keep pestering them!

Are Harry Fairbairn any better than Henry Bros when it comes to the service side of things?

Crombers
27th January 2005, 10:19 PM
Good question sir. I too bought from Henry Bros but have not been back since day 1 (touches wood). I,d even consider a day out to Stirling !! for me 1st service if it meant a job well done.

Note to all : Menzies sales staff and Menzies service staff are NOT to be considered the same thing!!!

Don't worry mate. I'm pretty sure everyone here has heard enough horror stories about the service departments to know they are all satan's eunuchs!
