Thought it was about time we said hello. Just got our first Mini last Thursday. 02 Mini Cooper in BRG. First impressions are really good. Wife loves it which is just as well as it's really her car.:D
Done a few things to it since we got it already, tints, stripes etc.
Few more things on the agenda but they will have to wait till after Chrimbo;)
Been watching the site for the last few days and must say you all appear like a friendly bunch. Hopefully see some of you around.

Don't know him personally but have probably seen him at meets or knockhill as I tend to visit knockhill pretty regularly. The SIDC is so big that you can speak to folks regularly online and never know who they are.
Most folks in Subaru circles know me as I have been involved with them for years. Oh and my old track car and road car were pretty well known
