No area dealer-would you buy?

[ZivasDad]

Hi!
I am looking at possibility of buying a MC because of the fun factor and mileage.

But
The nearest dealer is 250-300 miles from my city. Would any of you MINI owners consider buying in this circumstance? Could you tell me why or why not?

Thanks!

well if you could rent one, and tool around in it see if you like it then go get one. But if you do go get one, the drive home will be fun.
