Re: Saturday 5/7/16-MINI's To Richmond, MO Car Rally

I am going to have details soon. Sorry for the delay but for some reason I am having difficulties this year securing the same location that the MINI's have had for the past 4 years in the festival. They are wanting to move the MINI's to a different area :roll: Is it a better area or a worse area? W...

Re: INTEREST? Joint drive with Central Iowa club in 2016?

Just a note, the Mushroom Festival is on the 7th in Richmond. A great time can be had by all. :!: That event adds to the challenge, I think. May is such a great month weather-wise that committing two consecutive Saturdays on MINI events might be overkill. I'm OK if we want to skip a year. We could ...

05 MCS Suspension Repair Question

My sister has a 05 MCS and we are getting ready to repair the control arm bushings. The car has about 103k miles on it and I was wondering what are some other things that should be considering on being replaced.

Thank you in advance for your advice!

That A/C compressor and labor is expensive....I paid $900 to get mine fixed in June on my R50, granted I only have 51k miles on it :o

Hey everyone! I have a 2003 MINI Cooper. I have a problem :( The car will not lock/unlock via remote and the central toggle switch. I tried to do it manually with both keys and it will not lock/unlock. and the worst thing is I can't not open my driver's side at all. What do you think is the problem?...
