United-States What a different a year makes

Finally decided to bring my beloved but neglected ’02 MINI COOPER S in for service. I say neglected ‘cause the work should have been taken care of mid last year. Among the car’s ills was a nail in its tire. It just taught the sidewall in one of the car’s 17" GOODYEAR RUN-FLATS. A loose drivers side door strut "thingy," the car’s first oil change and lastly the drivers side wheel arc molding which flew off when returning from its "once a month visits" to the supermarket. One of far few times that I driven the car. My baby had only 1,597 miles on her when I dropped her off at PRINCETON MINI here in New Jersey. The car was purchased there. I use the car so little that of late I have to carry out to the car a portable "jump-starter" the car's own battery is usually dead. It was a difficult decision, but I went with a CRAZY MAD EXPENSIVE replacement GOODYEAR. The one tire, purchased through the dealer, cost nearly as much as a full set from other tire manufacturers. Having garnered so little mileage and because the others were in great shape that I thought it best for now to replace it. I was met at the service entrance by Issac. Princeton MINI’s service manager. This was a new arrangement. While I haven’t been back in for service in around a year, Issac was the forth service manager or so I’d dealt with. He’s the best as well. He was very professional. I expected the car back in a few dazes but he called me after only a few hours to tell me the car was ready. Even got a free "low mileage oil change and filter." Only paid for the tire. Well done PRINCETON MINI. Thanxs Issac.
