I met my first non waver the other day. I was driving around my town (Morris) and at a stop sign, I turned on that street, smiled and gave a wave. I think the guy looked at me like I was stupid or something. He was driving a CR/W S. Guess he doesn't know that we like to wave at each other.

New S coming soon I hope!!!
I always wave to your car as I pass, but as its parked with noone in it, the wave usually goes unnoticed. My gf lives near there, so I park around the corner (on Pierson). I have a BRG/W w/W wheels and bonnet stripes.
Ah! Then I'd recommend taking a drive through Lincoln Park if you're ever passing through the city. There are Mini's EVERYWHERE and their drivers are very friendly.
Spied a Sweeeet MCS parked (aka "at rest") in vicinity of Des Plaines (office?) Tower the evening of Monday the 19th. BRG/BRG, sunroof, "reality... what a concept" sticker. Hung out a while (MINI stake out), but no humans appeared...
I shoulda left you a note...
This you? PM me to settle a bet - namely whether or not BRG cars really ARE quicker! LOL
Ever (MINI) Vigilant, or should i say i have a keen eye for the obvious,
Tatt
I regularly see a yellow and white Cooper parked on Division just West of Damen and yesterday I saw a great looking Indie Blue MCS tearing East on the 290, which I was jelous of, as anyone who drives the Ike knows there are few opportunities for anything other than stop and go!
I live in the Schaumburg area and just started working in Des Plaines near O'Hare. I hardly ever see any Minis going to and from work, so if anyone is driving through that area, be sure to wave!! I have an 04 Electric Blue MCS.
:smile:
I only take my mini out on the weekends, but I'll be out on the look out
for your car. Im near Schaumburg...I pass by there usually around 3:30pm
every sat and sun when sunny during my usual 2hour spin.
Coming down Roselle from Central, always make a left onto Golf, pass
PatrickMINI, make a zipping right turn onto PlumGrove, then im gone.
:smile:

2perCooper- Yes, I think so...probably pull my car out around 2:30pm and
back home by 4:30pm. I usually drive through Arlington Hts, Palatine,
Barrington, and back.
I spotted 2 MINI's this morning!!!
I am in a silver civic during the commute so undetectable by MINI-ers.
I kinda like this stealth spy-mode.
