Calling all NJ Mini owners (or future owners)

2 things:

Where did you get (are you planning on getting) your mini?

and are there any Local Mini owners groups/clubs established yet?

I ordered from Princeton MINI. I am expecting delivery within 2 weeks. Very pleasant to deal with so far.

We got ours from Princeton Mini. The salesperson, Alan, has been a pleasure to work with from purchase through subsequent service visits. Top notch customer care ... I'd highly recommend them.

When I was ready to buy last August, all the NJ dealers had long wait lists - and none could come up with a car in my timeframe - so I bought from Habberstad Mini in LI and had the car by October.

But I work close to Princeton MINI and have gone there once for service. So far, so good...

If there's going to be an Italian Job event, I'd gladly come!

Purchased through Westchester Mini (excellent sales & service)
Serviced at Morristown (excellent)
Recently towed to Prestige after a jerk plowed into the left rear corner....waiting to see if it can be fixed. So far, Prestige has been nice to me!

United-States NJ Area Dealers

I live in Maryland and have purchased both my Mini's in far away Westchester, PA at Otto's Mini. I can certainly buy closer to home but like the dealership and my salesperson Danielle Tatum. Depending on where you are located in NJ, otto's may be a dealer worth considering.

We purchased ours from MINI of Morristown. Our salesman Brian was GREAT! It's the salesmanager that we have a problem with. We got the MCS JCW on 9/22, and the next day (less than 24 hrs) it would not start. Had the Roadside assistance pick-up rdnzl, and the dealer sent me a loaner at work, but the towtrunk driver damaged one of my rims CHAINING down the MINI! I had to wait two days to get the MINI back, but it was a weekend, and when I noticed the rim, I asked that it be replaced ASAP, and the salesmanagers like well it wasn't my fault, so why should I pay over 500 dollars to replace it. So I had to file a complaint with MINI roadside assistance, and the end result, after MUCH aggravation, is that they will replace the rim, 10/14/06 and it costs the dealer LESS than 200 bucks!!!
Had the dealer replaced my rim almost a month ago, he would have had a very satisfied customer. Now I'm sad to say that I would not recommend MINI of Morristown for a sale. Service, YES!
The bottom line, ED lost a customer, or two because he didn't do the right thing for less than 200 bucks, that he would have got back from MINI anyway!

The MINI is great though!!!! Had to vent, thanks for the ears!

Let's get some NJ MINI's out for a tour or something!

Mr. Jim

The nightmare rides are back...........
