I have been noticing lately a lot of the under 35 crowd seems to gravitate toward the R53 over the R56.

All I was pointing out is that I noticed a lot of younger guys driving the R53's.

Hi everyone, I am also new to the group and mini ownership. After it gets out of the body shop for some hail damage I received while driving in the Black Hills I am going to install one of the factory mini roof racks. Has anyone had much experience in installing on of these? I am also looking forward to the Parkville 4th of July parade as well. Thanks..Darrin
