MINI2

Well I did it too. After reading what feels like a thousand posts here on MINI2, I ordered my MCS today from Princeton MINI.

Now how do I make the next SIX MONTHS pass until mine comes in??

Make a MINI model? Collect MINI pics? Write MINI posts on MINI2? My wife is already getting tired of hearing the word MINI every other word out of my mouth. And it's only the first day!!!

I like your suggestions. And coincidently, I see from your signature that your MINI is the same as mine will someday be!

Since you brought it up, on the subject of oil changes: my dealer told me only to change the oil every 10,000 miles! Is that for real? I never heard of such a long interval.

Hang around here a lot and learn more than most people would ever want to know about a car.

Welcome to the club tfisher

I ordered in March and am due to take delivery this month.. Mini2 has made it a lot easier.. make sure you go and take a few test drives between now and when you get it

The wait will be worth it.

I hadn't heard about the John Cooper Works kit here in the US. What is it? And what are the "number plates"

I'm using my "waiting period" to save for the following upgrades:
Tinted windows
Speakers
Intake
Exhaust
Chip
Wheels/Tires

Of course, your list and priority may differ
