November Photo Topic :: Dirty
Interpret that how you will, keeping in mind that the photos must be MINI related and that only one photo per member per month may be submitted.
A tip from someone who lives 200 yards along a dirt road: if you want to get your MINI dirty, just drive on a dirt road over 20mph. The way it sucks dirt onto the back of the car is extraordinary! (On a JAC anyway - I don't know if the S spoiler helps any.)

no it really is amazing how the dirt just clings to the back of the car, there's something wacky going on with those aerodynamics.

No pic to post, but I had to wonder when I was washing the MINI by moonlight the other night whether I was in a class by myself. We've had a very wet summer / fall in the Southern Tier and between the weather and my work schedule, it had been way too long since I'd washed the MINI. It wasn't my best job, for sure, but finally, I just couldn't stand it anymore. It was 9 PM or nothing (since it was going to rain the next day...).
Oh goody! This theme was done before.
Bummer is I washed Swifty yesterday.

Mine will be in shortly. I thought I would have a great opportunity - last weekend we had a club Run which, very unusually, included some dirt roads - but I was unwell and had to pull out before the Dirty part.
