General MINI TalkShared experiences, motoring minutes, and other general MINI-related discussion that applies to all MINIs, regardless of model, year or trim.
I believe that Grant Wilson - co-founder of TAPS (SciFi show Ghost Hunters) - drives one. I saw an episode where he left his keys on a table and there is no hiding that distinctive MINI key!
I've heard that Adam Carolla has an 06 MCS. (since they've dropped the show in Phx, haven't heard him since).
I think Adam said something on his show the other day like when I had a MINI Cooper. I think he sold it. He did drive his silver MCS on his TLC show "The Adam Carolla Project" where they remodeled a house. He also drove a silver 350z.
Now, if you include the classic mini, we have:
- The Beatles
- Peter Ustinov
- Peter Selers
- David Bowie
- Mick Jagger
- Kate Moss
- Princess Margaret
- Twiggy
- Enzo Ferrari
Jay Demerit, an American from Green Bay, WI, who nows plays professional soccer in England and has played for the US National Team, drives a Silver & Black MINI.
Among his stable of exotics,
2 Rolls Phantoms, An Aston Martin, and a million $$ Bugatti Veyron, Simon Cowell (of IDOL) spends most of his time driving what he describes as "a very fast mini cooper". Nice to be known in good company!
And one of the guys from SCMM bought Heather Locklear's mini--complete with Richie Sambora's dent that he added.
