Hello - I'm new

Hi everyone,

My names Matt; live on the Gold Coast. Just sold my tricked out MKV Golf GTI as it was like having a drug addiction and Im looking at downgrading and buying a preloved MINI. No more than $25k (04/05 model)

Just thought I'd say hi as I want to do a few minor mods when I get it; nothing extreme like I did with the GTI.

Looking forward to catching up with some of the QLDrs.

Cheers

Matt

Hi Matt,

I'm from the sunshine area, I only purchased my 05 MCS Chilli in jan after owning two from new vw's, a polo gti APR and before that a MK4 gti. I love the mini and haven't missed the dubs yet.... Performance is a little lower from the polo but no regrets...

Cheers Shane..

Yay! Another QLD'er! Glad you could make it to the MINI club!

Welcome to the Mini world! Im sure you will love what ever Mini you end up getting. You may have some difficulty not modding it though.
