Hi everyone. I'm Jaff. I've just got my first mini SE 2020.
Just wanted to introduce myself.

Thanks ;)

Welcome, @JaffH! 2020 MINI Cooper SEs are rare. I ordered my SE in mid-2019 and couldn't get a 2020 model, thanks to the pandemic. I love my 2021 SE (which, except for the serial number, is the same as a 2020). Did you purchase yours from the original owner and learn its history? Do you have photos? How do you like it?
 
JaffH, please tell us more about your acquisition. You may be the first used buyer of an SE to join. We would be interested in any details you are willing to share.

Welcome to the forum! I passed 7,500 miles on my 2022 SE yesterday. And I thought to myself how the fun driving experience has not diminished at all in my year+ ownership. The SE is such a joy to drive.

7,500 miles is a lot for 2022 vehicle. Obviously, you drive a lot.

Purchase mine from a friend's friend. Long story. The car saw in terrible condition. Spend long nights repairing her. Now she's just gorgeous

Your car is the first mistreated SE reported on this forum. How many miles are on the odometer? If you made the repairs yourself, were all the problems with the body and/or interior? Did you take before and after photos? Thanks for rescuing this special car!

That's over a period of twelve months. Mine was one of the first 2022s delivered. My previous cars I've always averaged 12 to 15K per year, but that was pre-Covid before my office was closed and I was converted to full time work-at-home person.

Not actually that many. I'm over 8,000 in my '22 SE, and most of that is driving my granddaughter to work. I live in a small village about 10 miles from a larger city. Every trip to the city is a little trip. Those little trips add up. I don't think I've gone more than 60 miles in a single day.
