Default Bought my 1st Mini!

Hi guys/girls,

Just bought my 1st Euro. Was always into imports but I just love my Mini. Bought an 04 Mini S with a lil over 44k on it. Was just wondering if any of you with the same year n model started having problems with your rides? To be honest I didn't do any research on the Mini before I bought it. Any feed back will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a great 4th of July!
