Other peoples websites

As well as the essential MINI websites:
MINI2 – where I spend most online MINI time, “chatting” with other MINI owners; I go here for New England activity and to help with interior & stereo stuff;
MotoringFile – best place for MINI news;
NAM (NorthAmericanMotoring) – the other big MINI forum, best for performance mod discussions;
CooperSpeed – the smaller newcomer, and about the only place to keep up with the MTH upgrade these days;
GoMotoring – an overview of most MINI websites;

… In addition there are many individual websites (like GBMINI) created & maintained more or less frequently – I maintain a list of some of them under “Other Links”:
Josh Wardell’s MINI pages – some great “how-to’s” including curing Harman Kardon buzzing door syndrome;
MINI mods by ScooterBoy – more “how-to’s” including installing the MINI alarm;
UKPYLOT – another ex-pat with regularly updates (few pics);
CooperChronicle – recent updates after a long period of silence, and another one tempted by the ’05 MINI (like UKPYLOT);
SweetDaisy – a nice website mixing MINI with non-MINI;
SIZE-XS – another half-and-half website with some great MINI pics;
TD60295TD97931 – another ’05 upgrader (who works for a MINI dealership!);
HyperBlueMINI – just found this site today … nice site but infrequently updated;
RocketBoy – very rarely updated, but a nice font;
OctaneGuys website – rarely updated but with C3, the National Motoring Database and the VacuCam, Richard probably has his hands full!

If there are any good ones I missed, let me know …

Another new MINI

(no – not for me this time!)

Visited MINI Peabody today to meet John picking up his new ’05 MINI (and install an auto-up-windows MINI circuit for him). A few other people were there too including Maureen (of course), Rick and Jeff – Jeff decided that Johns MINI needed some upgrades!

Congratulations John!
