Default My Old Engine used to be bigger than My new MINI!

Hello guys! So, I just got a new 2005 Mini S hard top, black. I used to have a Jeep SRT8. What a switch! While I miss my jeep and enjoy driving my dad's, I have to say my new Mini is a far different ride and equally a blast! I have had it about a week (had to sell Jeep and get a better commuter car since I moved and lengthened my commute by 50 miles a day).

I have to say that the previous owner took great car of this car and did a great job with his after market selections. It has (so far things I have investigated) ALTA intercooler, 19%pulley, ALTA CAI, Catback exhaust, upgraded suspension, lowered?, checkboard roof and side mirrors, built in radar detector, and nav.

I bought it with the airbag light on and found out the hard way that that was a no-no. I just ordered a new seat and it should be here this weekend for install. I live in Rockville, MD so look out for me!

I will have pics of my old Jeep up and the Mini as well this weekend.

Looking forward to learning a lot and enjoying this new type of ride.

Thanks,
Ian
