addz May 25th, 2007, 10:58 PM Hi all...
just joined up seeing as i am now a mini owner, the site looks pretty damn good so far so hopefully it will help me with my lack of knowledge with the newer mini's as i have only had mine 3 days :)
absolutly love it so far, incredibly fast compared to my first car which was a little 1.2 clio and definatly built better! :D
addz May 25th, 2007, 10:59 PM oh yeah... forgot to mention i have a cooper S in dark grey on a 53 reg :)
LizzyG May 26th, 2007, 07:41 AM Welcome to the site :) your car sounds fab, got any pics? Don't forget to complete your profile so we can see your spec :cool:
addz May 26th, 2007, 12:07 PM right here is a few pics, not the best quality as there from my phone but i will take some better ones today after a good wash.

loving the mini so far, build quality is so much better than the clio and just a little bit faster :biggrin:
insurance is a tad more too seeing as i'm only 20 :hmph:
Fin May 26th, 2007, 01:02 PM Insurance is a bugger. You may notice a difference in petrol consumption over your Clio over the next few days! When I got my MCS I think I filled it up 3 times in the same week.
Jamesr022 May 27th, 2007, 02:52 PM Nice car!
how much you pay for it ? any spec?
noticed you not got the chilli pack on it!

:) Congrats on your new MINI. I have a MCS, & before that I had a 1.6 clio and the MCS is a far better car, its a lot more fun! I am sure that you will enjoy driving your MCS!

Hope you got a good deal from Motorhouse ! Bet they gave you about 25 quid for the Clio :tongue:
Congrats on the new MCS :biggrin:
Parc77 May 28th, 2007, 10:41 AM You made the better choice...could have gone 172/182 for that extra .3 of a second quicker (which isnt particulary noticable on the road) and you have quality and you know you'll still get a decent price back for it when you come to sell on. congrats :)
ALD0 May 28th, 2007, 11:32 AM Deffo step up froma 1.2 Clio, enjoy :cool:
