OOOOHHHHH I LOVE LOVE LOVE my 2006 Mini Cooper S. I bought a 2006 because they changed the body styles in 2007 and I didn't like the new ones. My Cooper is Hyper Blue.

Buying the Cooper was in incredible experience. I had been looking for a llllooonnnggg time. As luck would have it, my hubby found EXACTLY what I was looking for on ebay -- we called the dealer, he flew Ron and me out to Texas where I met my frister, Patty58, her daughter Barbi, and one of her adorable granddaughters, Karris. We had a hug-fest, a great visit, a fantastic lunch and then Barbi drove us to the dealer where we bought the Cooper and drove it home.

There are two inanimate objects in my life that make me smile every single time I see them. My Cooper is one and my logo/avatar (logo by Sandshara) (avatar = logo jazzed up by Peanut).

I am glad you had fun at the Rally. I fell in love with Coopers when I went to Cortiod, Switzerland to visit my husband when he was working there several years ago. They used Mini Coopers as their police vehicles.
