Hello!  My name is Paula, aka Area51CT.    I've had my Mini about a week. She's not new, very gently used, not even broken in yet. I haven't named her yet, but I am working on that. My Mini is a 2005 Pepperwhite Cooper S, 6 speed with black bonnet stripes. She is fun and sporty! My last ride was an Explorer, I miss her, but Mini and I have a new love affair going. I just ordered her some Zaino Brother's leather treatment and Griot's Garage wheel polish. Thinking about mod's, but still in the thinking stage. Although my certified car crazzzzy brother has already mentioned a few things. He'd be happy I ordered my own Zaino stuff as I always use his.

Have a Happy Motoring New Year everyone!
