Wanted to get some photos before all the leaves fell off the trees. More shots after the jump.

The second shot is my favourite of the set.
I like the third one too.

Unrelated: I watched the Italian Job last night and now want myself a Mini Cooper S. How do you like it?
Great pics!

I've had it for about 6 months and love it so far. Fun to drive, comfortable, and great gas mileage.

Sweet! Now that I look at your username I seem to remember you posting on here when you first got it. Didn't you used to have a NA Miata, or am I thinking of someone else?
Any reliability quibs on the Mini as of yet?

I still have a Miata:
No issues to speak of with the Mini. I've put almost 9k miles on it since I bought it. Luckily, the original owner bought a 6 year maintenance plan which stays with the car, so I won't have to pay for oil changes, brakes, or anything like that until 2016.

Sweet, I was right. I stole one of your photos for a desktop bg a while back:
Did you ever DD the Miata? Also, what rims are those (the green and bronze/gold combo looks spectacular BTW)?
Good call on the maintenance plan; might be worth looking into.

I DDed it out of necessity for about 2 months between selling my WRX and finding a suitable Mini. As much as I love it, it's not DD material, especially at this ride height. I recently acquired a hardtop, though, which helps immensely with NVH.
The wheels are Rota Grid-V (15x7 +20 offset).
