What kind of Mini are you driving?
Ours is a bone stock 2008 MINI. Brit racing green with black cap and sun roof. The sun roof was a big mistake as it made the car an oven on sunny days. Fixed with near black out window tinting. Not much can be done about the vinyl seats, however. Don't know what i was thinking on that score.
Besides all that we love the car. 2000 miles and getting just under 31 mpg around town. And it's a blast to drive.

2006 MINI S. Chili Red on Red with Black and Red interior. Black Wheels. Got rid of the crapy run flats and now have Yokohama's. Got rid of all the Chrome and the car now has a mean look to it. I LOVE my MINI so much that when I had to choose between the MINI and the CayenneS.... I chose the MINI!!!!! Bye Bye CayenneS lol
I think later on this year I will be trading it in on a new Yellow S to sorta Match the 993. |

Ya know something..... We didn't want a Sunroof either, but we got one and it is a HUGE mistake when living in the desert. I seriously feel like I have to wear a baseball cap in my car to keep from burning my part line.... It would be nice if the AC was a little more powerful too......
Mean looking? KEWL, that's what I want it to look like Picture of yours???? BTW: Speedster LOVES the MINI. She can see over the dash. Something that she can not do in the truck..... but them we just traded in the truck on a Scion xB this morning. She seems to be enjoying riding around in that car too...... |

Hi, we have a stock (except for tint job,) 2008 MCS, 6 spd Auto, Sport, DST and winter. Love this quick little car. It is my daily commuter/driver and getting 31 mpg avg into the city each day. ~50 mi. round trip (would do even better if I could only stay out of the boost. The local Mini club is a great bunch too!

2002 S, picked up in 8/2002. She's now got about 43K on it. I'm sure I sold a bunch of these, as the early days were full of folks asking questions and taking test drives. She's done track duty, autocross, and absolutely a blast to drive daily. The only mod is a laser jammer. With the fuel prices, I can't imagine a better car to have fun in! I'm 6'5", and have a TON of room..go figure!!
