Just wanted to say "hello" to all you Mini enthusiasts out there! After a year of telling myself "they're just too small', I'm actually breaking down and considering buying a Mini S sometime in the upcoming months. This is from a PT Cruiser enthusiast who thought he might be the first in line for a PT convertible this spring. While the Mini's back seat and cargo capacity doestake a backseat to the Cruiser, handling and performance will be another story. I did have the opportunity to take a S out on a "restrained" test drive, ....and I was impressed! And to sway my decision, my girlfriend may go ahead and spring for "The Works" upgrade.
So there just may be a Mini in my future!

I have a bit of digesting to do (this site is huge!) .....but I'm sure I will be back with questions - so be forewarned!
