sorry i couldn't help myself https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Well now that you're a mini owner, you need some instructions....

We checked out some other cars, nothing in the price range compared to the

Mini. We dont need another big car, figured it would be nice to get something

that you dont see ALL the time. They offered the best bargain, and the car

seems to be of a high build quality, the dealer network is great, service department

is BMW. The dealer only gets 300 a year so they can only sell so many of them.

He told us they plan on making a 2 seater pick-up, and the convertible is coming

out in 2005-2006? So the design is going to stay basically the same. Resale is great

on them as well. They also offer free maintance for 3 years/36,000 miles, synthetic oil

is reccomended so they will be providing that, brake pads, wiperblades, light bulbs, you

name it.

I dont think the whole watching your mini get built is real, I cant see it taking

them more then a day to build one. I couldnt get over how many people were

coming into the dealer to see them, they had them in thier own section

of a showroom across the street from the BMW dealer where they sell

the certified used BMWs. The whole expierence in the dealer was worth it,

where the Honda dealer was pushing to sign a deal so that the

"rates wouldnt change", the Mini dealer was super low pressure.

Wow! BMW is going to come out with a mini pickup too? One day when I come across some money, i'm going to get a austin mini pickup to go with my austin cooper. They are very hard to come by though.

a pick-up, a convertible, and even a sport wagon!

The dealer had seen all of the

prototypes. Apparently they send the dealers to school where they get to drive

the **** out of a mini as well as all its competitors. That pick-up is

really nice.

Here is an original vert and wagon.

guess I can look forward to doing some Mini research of my own now, lol.

The original looks soo cool in 1275S form! Good Luck with your new one!
