Thought I read that Bobby Rahal has (had?) a Classic and an R53.

Model Adrianne Curry who is married to Chris Knight from the Brady Bunch has a MINI Cooper. Don't know what year or style though, saw her driving it when watching My Fair Brady.

I'm pretty sure that was just a typo in the article - all of the MINI E models have yellow mirror caps and some yellow graphics on the roof and bonnet. Plus, they don't have hood scoops.

Yeah, not at E (it has a radiator for one) but it is a standard, quite surprising.

The E MINIs are also based on R56s, not R53s.

She seems kind of apathetic towards the whole experience. "Did I chip a nail?"

On the news, they were just talking about Susan Boyle suffering from too much stress yada yada yada and showed a clip from in front of her house. I noticed a MINI parked in front, Googled her name and MINI Cooper and found a posting from a representative for her saying that the "Britain's Got Talent" runner-up just recently bought a MINI. The other posters on the forum say some nasty things about her, but I guess she qualifies as a "celebrity MINI driver." Take that for what its worth.

Tom Cavanagh is driving a MINI in his show Stories from the Vault on the Smithsonian Channel. Not sure if it is actually his or not but it has been in several of the episodes.

First, Dirk needs to get the paternity/girlfriend thing fixed, then he can get the s-lite's replaced. I wonder if he ever brings his Mini to Dallas or if he has another one here. He could definitely afford 2.
