I saw a few MINIs out there today. If you were driving a Cool Blue cabrio westbound on Rt. 176 today, I only spotted you right as you were passing me. Same if you were driving a (black, I think) R56 MCS west on Rt. 60 (I think). I did catch a CR/W with the UJ roof on Sheridan Rd. in Evanston, thanks for the wave-back...
Red Bull MINIs?
Did anyone else see the 2 Red Bull promotional MINIs yesterday? We were on Golf and had just past Patrick MINI when I spotted 2 big cans of Red Bull on the roof of 2 Lightning Blue MINIs! We could not catch up to them but they were heading towards the city.
I saw one of the Red Bull MINI's on 290 while heading south from Schaumburg yesterday afternoon about 2:45. It was going the other way.
I was in my 02 DS/W MCS. That later in overheated. :(

TODAY:
I am looking at a LB/W MCS/ JCW(?) in the lot of Station Square/ Prairie Crossing. Checked roof, "motoring underground" decal on the windows.
I put my verrrry last motoring citation on your window

well I saw a few there... no one waved back IN the city, but someone towing a Classic clubman entering the city between tolls did wave back...
did see a lot while I was on foot, tooting around the city...

Honestly, it's pretty hard to catch waves in city traffic even if you wanted to. Too much to pay attention to that's more important.
I got chased a lot already in the bars at night.... :P



thanks for the wave
