Hi From A New Member.

Post by 2000_MPI »

Hi All,
Thought I should introduce myself as I have just registered on the forum, (Owners club application going in post tomorrow).
Originally from Bridgend, South Wales I have been living in West Waterford for the last 7 years.
Recently bought my latest Mini, a 2000 Cooper MPI, my seventh Mini to date and the first one in 12 years. I bought it from a garage in Swansea for half the going rate, it needs a bit of work but I thought it was worth the risk.
Am looking forward to meeting up with some likeminded Mini fans in the future.
Hopefully there are some photos attached, if anyone sees me (Usually West Waterford/East Cork area), give me a wave. :D

Dave Thomas.

Welcome to the forum, Dave (and the club - I'll look out for your form as it'll be coming to me).

The car looks like a good risk to me!!!!

Hi Dave

Welcome to the Club, we'll do our best to fulfill all your Miniing needs.

You could join us in Mondello, on the 22nd, we hope to have a good few members there that day, you might even meet the other Daves, (nearly as common as Hornets and Java GT's these days). :roll: :lol:

Last August we had our annual camping weekend in Tipperary and on the Saturday we went for a run to the sea and stopped in Clashmore for an icecream. I was in the Heritage Centre a few weeks ago. It's a nice village.

One of our club members is Womble who is based in Dungarvan so you'll find there are plenty of us out there.
