  1. Will do! During the week I don't drive much - the extend of my drive is from my place to the MARC station and back.
  2. I can recommend Mach V - as I'm not an officiall member yet, I had my pre-cat (on an '02 as well) bust up, and they were able to cut it out and weld in a replacement pipe, as well as cut and re-weld the cat-back system I have to fix a mis-alignment. They came in under estimate and took 'bout 4 hours. Despite having to talk to a couple STI drivers, it went well.
  3. Was over at the Lowe's / Chiplote in Gaithersburg today, saw a Red MC(S?) with the plate stamped "MNI...". Can't remember the full plate, but figured it was someone here or a true MINI nut.
  4. Ah, no - Moxie's alt color is white - white roof/wheels/mirrors/A panels. However, I have seen that Mini out along Wysteria Drive/119/Middlebrook. Haven't gotten a wave from them yet. *sigh* All, thanks for the references. I'm calling and getting info/prices now, so hopefully the Classic will be up here soon so I can get him out on the roads.
  5. Okay, that makes me wanna join up alone. WHo'e the poor guy at the end?
  6. Ah! Kosher! .. Admittedly, those are friggin' sweet colors.
  7. Technically, not all. Some exports were shipped LHD. Mine, "Bo", was RHD but changed over to LHD when it was shipped over here. Hey, Catmint, MisterTripps! Yeah, I went/go by Foxtrot_Xray over there. Due to my service in the service being SO long ago now, I've been getting away from that screen name for a while now. I spent the last year in Jasper, and migrated daily to Marietta and back. I'm up here now due to the poor economy down there. Lost the toy-breaking job in May, and after 4 months, had less hits than I could count on one hand. I had a really good offer up here. So my plan is to hang out up here with you guys for a few years, and eventually head back to Georgia once the economy improves. Unless you guys throw me a really big party... then I may consider staying.
  8. You are NOT from 'North Georgia'. You're from Atlanta. Are/were you a member of AtlantaMINIs? Your screen name looks familiar. Anyways, I'm from Jasper / Ellijay - 'bout 75 miles north of Atlanta, 30 miles south of the TN/GA/NC tri-state area. (Up I-575/GA515.) Yeah, I noticed the roads too. I work in downtown Silver Spring, and while I've been in town only 4 weeks, I've driven in to work twice. I think Georgia Ave. broke a weld in my header! Look forward to going on some drives, both with the group and alone. (Hey.. some things are okay with only one.) Hopefully I'll be unpacked soon and have a place for the Classic to sleep, then I'll be ready to go.
  9. Hey Tom! Also new here.. And I must ask, because I'm clueless. .. What is 'Terp colored', exactly?
  10. Thanks! Coming from N. Georgia, it will.. take a while to get used to this area. Ya'll's traffic is the worst I've ever had to drive in. Whew! I have just started looking at self-storage places, so hopefully something'll turn up. There's a lot of nice roads out here - away from DC. Used to have a Golden, and would consider it again, once I get settled in here. I may stop by you guys sometime - do ya'll specialize in everything, or specific like drivetrain or such? Thanks all! Mike.
  11. Hey all. I'm new to the area, and will probably officially join the group around the new year, as the rest of this year will be spent unpacking and getting settled. In Germantown, MD, I have two MiNi's - a 2002 MC BRG MINI with 230k miles, and a Classic 1972 Rover Mini cooper, also BRG and with 53k miles. So being new to the area, I have two questions maybe someone can point me to - First off, anyone recommend a good non-dealer show that will work on MINIs (or even Ckassics?) Second, due to insurance, I gotta keep the Classic in a locked garage and unfortunately, my place up here doesn't have one. Anyone recommend someplace? (Somewhere on the north side of DC< preferably. Heh.) Thanks all! Mike.
