Why don't we start a MINI spotting thread?

I know we do this on other forums. I'm just surprised that we don't do this here.

On OSU campus, I've seen the same Chili Red/White R53 MCS for the past 3 years, but never seen the driver. The plates say CRSM. He/she parks in A pass locations, so it must be a professor or a distinguished employee. Has anyone else seen this Mini around town?

Nice seeing you John. What had me spooked was the banjo music blaring out of the truck cab. Also what were the sheep in the back of the truck for?

BAAAAHHH - BAAAAHHH Chuck John, were you waving to Chuck or giving hand signals to the sheep to get them to lie down so that Chuck wouldn't see them? If so, the hand signals didn't work and Google Image is going to get real busy with supplying response photography Let the games begin.....INCOMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm surprised you could hear the banjo over that Britney stuff I heard thumping from the BLU BRIT. I had no idea you knew the words too!

And Chuck do you really want to get me started with you and footwear again?

Oh nose I'm starting to feel very sheepish. Please be kind oh so powerful & benevolent photoshop guru.

That Britney girl is one of my peeps or maybe sheep's. She thinks yellow line crossers are #1.....

PW Cooper at the Newark exit on 16 that goes to COTC, the guy didn't look at me- we were side by side - I was turning right and he was going left. Doesn't he know the rules of MINI Mania? Bummer
