Nice! Wonder how many of us have Coopers in the driveway..... Wife had a base model 2003 for years; couldn't get out of its own way - scared me merging onto roads! The CVT transmission finally gave up, and we picked up a Countryman S ALL4 (auto). Love the Elise but felt claustrophobic in the old Mini; LOVE the Countryman though! Only down side to her is other Mini owners used to wave all the time; not one wave in the Countryman in 3 months.. :)

Nice, I have an R53 as my daily :)



Best daily driver ever. I've become so attached to the Mini in just the short amount of time I've had it.
That is a sick picture! I also love the car to death in the 3 weeks I've been with it! :shift:

Isn't Mini owned by BMW? Which means it's British because many people incorrectly think 'BMW' stands for 'British Motor Works' :)

Good news is that last little patch of snow on your neighbor's lawn is all melted now! :)

That's 'cause you don't have a Mini anymore. You have a Countryman. ;)

Ouch!!!

We too have a Cooper S/Elise combo, and a retired Mini JCW race car. Thinking now about another Cooper S for the wife, although I've been lusting after an XKR. The problem with the Jaguar is that she'd try to climb a tree with 500 bhp, and Jaguars are ground cats.

Decisions, Decisions......

Stephen.
