Ages of MINI drivers, don't be shy
I know couldn't afford this stuff when I was a kid!
My 2011 MCS was my retirement present as well. They are easy to love.

Think I posted to this before but can't remember. But it's time to update. 53 when we bought our cars. 55 years old now and thought I better buy one of those Coupes. I'm not getting any younger you know. Now the wait starts all over again. These cars are a hoot and I'm really looking forward to the new addition. I also have a 2005 GTO 400 HP. I like fast cars. The Goat has 109,000 miles on it now and runs like a champ.
Been married 29 years now. My wife is great to put up with my Mini and car obsession. She likes her Mini so that has been a real bonus.
Keep Motoring!!

Turning 24 in October, and I'm on my third MINI
The first two was a shared car between me and my brother, who is 3 years older. We decided to pool our cash together to get something nice instead of having two different beater cars. And although we were fighting over who gets to take the MINI out for the day, we were always glad to have the MINI. It's just too much fun.
Now that I have an actual job, I'm paying for the car by myself since my brother lives in NYC. Kind of the reason why I went with an MC instead of MCS.

45 and can't believe it took me this long to own one! It is amazing the range of ages this car appeals to. But it makes sense as it is a blast to drive that is also pretty darn practical and affordable. Looking to going strong many more years just so I can keep driving MINIs.

I'm 34 and my significant other is 32. She uses the Mini as a daily driver and I'm really jealous of it. At the end of this month I'll have to give my company car back as I'm leaving the company. Haven't found a new job yet, but when I do land the one I'm rooting for I hope to get myself a shiny new Countryman.
29 and missed my old (since sold) Nissan 300ZX as my fun car. Wanted something fun again and the Mini sold me in one test drive. Ordered 2 days later. Can't wait to trade in the Nissan Altima (aka .. boring car)
We'll that was the end of that. We bought 2. Both S's but hers auto and mine 6 speed. No way was she going to have a Justa after driving the S. I had to sell another car real quick. My wife is cool she is a car gal. Loves the Top Fuelers and drag races. We go every year. Guess that's why we've been married 29 years this Thanksgiving. Yea!
Same thing happened to me. Was looking to replace my wife's Corolla and we stopped at a Mini dealership to test drive. Test drove an auto and 6 speed. The auto was for her and we test drove the Justa. Then we test drove the 6 speed S model.

I just turned 45. We already have a truck with a lift, so it's time for the MINI. 
I think they're going to look funny together in the driveway. MINI clubman, and an F150 crew cab with a 6" lift.
