Hi All!
thought it was about time i made my maiden post!
Anyways, my name is Chris and im 19, currently living in Nottingham, England.
im a huuuuggge mini enthusiast although i currently drive a MkIV Golf
Im currently eyeing up a few mini coopers, though i have strict and stringent points that im looking for

.
im fortunate enough to say i've just got into the Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service and im waiting to start my training, in the meantime i hold a job working for a big Car Electronics company (mainly dealing in aftermarket electronics such as Headunits, speakers, subwoofers, sat nav, amplifiers etc etc etc....).
all being well, i hope to have a Cooper by the summer and i already have pretty big plans, in terms of colour scheme's, subtle modifications etc. i am tempted to hold out until i am 20 in order to reduce my already steep insurance premium. current quotes on a cooper are coming back in the region of £1700.
so fingers crossed but watch this space....
so, hello to all and so far soo good. i have been browsing the site for a while, but didnt really fancy signing up or posting as i dont have a mini, however in due course i should have
thank you!
Chris
