Red Cooper Another Mini Newbie!

Hello!

Just thought I'd introduce myself! I'm the proud new owner of my delicious Mini Cooper S Convertible and I love it so much! We picked it up last night and drove a little while with the roof down and the air con and heated seats on full whack, man it was fun!

I'm still trying to decide on a name for her (yes, it's a her!)... any ideas guys and girlies?

Welcome Zara Elise

It's the law when you have a MINI Convertible you have to 'go topless' at every opportunity

Here she is! Apparently the woman who previously owned it let her kids choose the colours... not sure if we'll keep the chequered stripes!

WOW, i love her,looks really funky and cool.
Plus i would definetly keep the stripes and mirrors checked, and possibly add the checkered interior mirror.

I LOVE MINIS!!!!!

Looks good! I like the interior too. Red and black is a good colour combo.

Love it so cute! Like the cheques and something different too! Definitely a girl I say!

Our MCS is called Poppy the Park Lane because of her exhaust! Feel her character and then the name should follow effortlessly!

All Cooper S's are female.

You can tell by the loud whining

Hi Zara! That's a nice name in itself. Once I get my new red and black MINI, I am going to name it too. As it's a female I think the names I would choose from are Lucille, Queenie (as in Queen of the Road) or Roxy! What do you think? Yes, I am slightly wacko.

Yeah, I think that's what I'll have to do. It's just soooo fast compared to our old Peugeot, and considering you can't really see out of the back window on account of the teeny-ness of the actual glass and the chunkiness of the seats I'm gonna have to take it easy until I get used to her!

She's awesome though!!!

Looks lovely, and welcome to m2

What Nicky said too, you gotta get the top down - if it's dry, you should be topless!

Enjoy!
