I can add you to the list, Veckles of Bellevue. I believe the only requirement to be MINI ownership.

City?

The term "city" is used loosely here. We live near Virginia.
I'd like to invite all the mini owners to come to Virginia for a fabulous steak. And it'd be super funny to over run the town with mini-coopers for a while. The locals will be completely freaked. We'd probably get our picture on the wall though.....well, a picture of the cars.

My mini's pepper white with stripes and some graphics on the doors. I'll try and post a pic here. It's not the best, but you get the idea.

Not smart enough yet to know how to attach this pic, so follow the link above, it should show my car. If not, I'll do my homework later.

Welcome to CORN! We've turned a few heads and got a lot of waves from folk when we've motored through the smaller towns.

You have a fine looking MINI there!

Welcome to C.O.R.N. I will add you to the list (your screen name will be listed under the RURAL group) Welcome to the field. I may have to arrange a hostile take over of Virginia, NE.

Cooper Noob

Hey guys. I just got my very first Mini Cooper a few months ago. LOVE IT. I have put a ton of miles on it I drive so much. Its a 2008 MCS, Sparkling Silver/Black, Lounge Leather interior. Did I mention that I love it? I am interested in joining CORN and meeting more Cooper owners in Omaha. I see them around and get other owners waving, honking, tipping their hats, etc. But it would also be nice to meet and BS with fellow owners face-to-face. Let me know what I need to do to join. And feel free to ask me any questions. -Michael

Hi Michael,

Welcome to MINI ownership and welcome to CORN! Where have you been that you've been waved and honked at? Between my wife and I we've received a only a handful of waves. :( Glad your experience is different.

Rainman, 2 days after I bought the car, I was gasing it up and a middle aged gentleman came up to me and was asking about the car. About a week ago, I was driving down Center street around 78th and I passed next to a Blue/White MC, and we both nodded simultaneously. A day later I came to the intersection of Regency and Pacific, and there were 2 other Mini's at the intersection. One of owners waved at me. I get it all the time. -Michael

@WildThang - Were you in Bellevue this afternoon, near Shadow Lake? I saw a gray one with black rims; thought it could be you.

That was not us. We're running silver S Lite rims during winter. The Tenzos are the black rims we use for summer.

We used Dodge Street today.
