Hello Mini World
(Preview)
Just taking a moment to introduce myself and say hello. I just bought a 2002 MCS CR/CR last week from a guy in Greece. I've been a fairly loyal VW guy for most of my driving life, but it was time to move on. Hope to meet some of you at some point. Cheers!

Raced a Mustang GT the other day. I just wanted to see how the MINI would hold up.... Yah, He ate me up! But... in no way did he lose me. I held my own. He was very impressed. He thought he was going to leave me in the dust. Give me a road course and I would kill that Mustang!!!
