I just bought my first MINI. I bought a 2006 Cooper S Hardtop (R53). It's got the automatic transmission. I bought it with 57xxx miles. I'm looking forward to it being my daily driver for many years to come.

If anyone has any tips or insight I'd be happy to hear it.

Welcome to the forum. I've got an 04 R53 and she's my main ride. Cruising the coast and weekend warrior at the track. She does it all! Have fun with it!

 

Welcome & Best Wishes on your new Buy !
