Hey Everybody!

Welcome to MINI2. Nice color combo by the way.

I lurk on roadfly and post on this board. Welcome to the more organized site.

I have to admit, this site is taking me a bit to get used to. But I'm working my way around. We've been on the other site for quite a while. Figured it was time to branch out

Welcome!

And there are some who post on both boards. I do post a lot more over here, though.

A big advantage to MINI2 is that, while I'm sleeping, busy little posters in far corners are giving me something to read with my morning coffee.

gromit exists in both dimensions as well Welcome to MINI2!
I find this board a *lot* more intuitive when attempting to follow posts. I also enjoy the banter with our British and Australian cousins. Great way to learn new phrases like "the dog's bo11ack$" and other cool stuff like that.

Welcome to MINI2

Yes, navigating is a little different here than at Roadfly. Be sure you click and near the top of the page to take advantage of two things which you won't find there ... a bunch of technical FAQs and a high powered search (that doesn't restrict you to archived posts)

Welcome to MINI2!!!!!!!

I find this site much easier to use than roadfly.

Is Leesburg near Richmond? I have some cousins there.

Have you checked out the forum on meetings? There seem to
be quite a few in Northern VA.

Life is short! Why drive a boring car?!

Thumbs up

Greetings, Mike & Donna and Donna & Mike!

It's a pleasure to "meet" you! I've lurked on the other site for over six months, and I've learned and laughed a lot over there.

I'm certain you'll find this to be an excellent, informative multi-cultured board.

Happy to see you over here, you will find the international character and the organization fun and useful. I read and post on other boards but this is my favorite. Thanks for posting the S pictures, I couldn't understand the fuss about that.

You're going to laugh but I just figured out how to respond directly to each post - geez louise - you would think I would be an expert at this stuff by now!

Anyway - thanks for the welcome!

Hi there! We've been over on the Roadfly board for months now - so time to spread our wings out a bit

Leesburg is about 2 1/2 hours north of Richmond but we have quite a group already gathered down there. We have a Yahoo board set up so we can all chat It's funny you should bring up the forum on meetings - we just set a couple up. We have 15 cars coming up here next Saturday for a drive!

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm still trying to figure out how this all works - LOL. Roadfly was pretty easy -this one is taking me a bit more time to find my way around

And another thing I like

is there are no flame wars over here. Basil whacks anyone who tries to start one.
