If you're moved and settled in by late September the All British Car Day down in Round Rock (Austin Tx) is a great weekend event. Details will be posted in the MOT website. Welcome to the DFW area. It was my home for 40 years before retiring and moved to Arkansas.

For classic Minis: MOT (Mini Owners of Texas) has a pretty good group in the DFW metroplex.

For new MINIs: there is a group called Metroplex MINIs that has a good reputation.

Below should be a link to the MOT forum site. Use the link on the forum home page to send me a email registration request (MOTadmin1) and I'll be glad to add you to the forum.

Cheers, M. Playle

There are a number of Mini nuts in the Metroplex. You should have no problems.

Best of luck in your move. It's hotter and it's drier, and you'll get used to the 14 MPH prevailing wind!
