I am new to the WNY mini club forum but have owned my mini for almost a year (blue 2006 Cooper S with silver racing stripes (we also have a 1975 Austin Mini)). Are there ever any mini events or meet-ups in the Buffalo area?
Thanks!!

I think for 'local flavor' Jeremiah's would be a logical choice. They are at 1104 Monroe...
