Here's our latest ride:





It's a 2007 Genuine Buddy 125. LOADS of fun. I love this scoot. Now, of course, the modding must begin.

In addition to Ferris I have a 98 Isuzu Rodeo 4x4 (Sue), comes in handy for hauling and getting into those hard for a mini to reach places.

 

I am going from a Chevy Avalanche 2500HD to a MCSC. Thankfully the truck is a lease so I don't have to worry about negotiating a trade on a 11 mpg vehicle...just drop and run . The other vehicle is a 2006 Subaru B9 Tribeca...it is the Newfies Hauler.

 

I used to haul my Newfie in a '92 (?) Subie Loyale wagon. In fact, I bought it used with her in mind (she was having trouble getting or being helped into my Dodge Dakota). I love the Newfs, but she broke my heart; alas I won't have one to travel in our current Subie Outback wagon. The little terrier (who now has Cushing's Disease) and is also breaking my heart is going to travel just fine in the MINI!

 

I bought a used Mini Cooper S because driving the big off-road F150 SuperCrew V8 to work and around town was overkill and it began to cost me $80 a week to fuel.
Now the truck doesn't move from it's parking space much at all. Only Home Depot trips and when my band has a gig, to haul all the equipment. But come winter it should be the other way around if we get much snow.
BTW; I play in a house band every week where there is a little space in the corner of the parking lot that no one can park in. My Mini zips right in there with room to spare. My big amp fits in the Mini and I'm close to the door too.
Could never do that with the pickup. Winding country roads to the place make it extra fun. In the pickup they were more of an ordeal.
My wife has a Chevy Cavalier.

 

2004 Honda Pilot to haul the family+
2005 Audi A6 4.2 to haul by butt through hours of traffic each day
and my 2005 MINI Cooper S Convertible is for when I have some open road on a clear day or night!

 

I see a lot of convertibles, MINIs included being driven around with the roof UP and the AC ON. Buy a large brimmed hat, put on some sun screen, 30+ or more and put the top down. Why else have a convertible. I only have a sun roof and you better believe that unless it is Monsoon season, it is back.

Safe Motoring On!!

 

My daily driver is a '97 Honda Accord. Not worth posting pictures.

 

We have an 03 Lexus LS430 and an 01 Sebring Convertible - The Mini is still my favorite - trying to put the wife in a BRG Mini S Conv when the Sebring dies Save the Lexus for long trips with lots of luggage!

 

Wow a 2001 Chrysler product still on the road ...just kidding!

 

What eles beside a 2006 Corvette with the Z-51 package with 440 horses...

 

My SO had lowered heself from a Mercedes-Benz convrtible to a BMW Z3 to a Sebring and had about settled on that until I saw the MINI on a mag front cover in 2002. After I finished cleaning the drool of my chin and the floor, she knew she had lost that battle. I still can't convince her that she needs a MINI convertible. As for my other vehicle, I have a 1994 Ranger that I get to drive most of the time because my SO, who doesn't like MINIs, has the MINI all the time to drive back and forth to work and the MALL.

 

Hubby's 2007 Shelby GT500. That's why my Mini's name is SHELBY JR. Same color schemes.

Ford F150 for towing the family quads and jet skiis around.

 

We have a 99 ES300 Lexus and will probably keep it for a good while longer. It's so reliable and even gets good gas miliage(29 highway). We did have a leased 2005 Honda Pilot and we were glad to see it go. It was a gas hog!!

 

My wife drives an '05 Mercedes E500 wagon with Brabus exhaust and chip. I have an '04 Volvo S60 R with various mods. (see my gallery)

When my MC arrives, the Volvs will become a weekend/foul weather car.

 

We have two minis - one just happens to be a mini VAN - Odyssey, that is.

 

My first car:


Second car is a Mini (if you ask her mine is the second) My third car is the 48mpg TDI Golf on the left (my daily driver)

 

I would love to have one of these in the garage. I am typically not a fan of kit cars, these things are in a whole different class. I am a tad jealous that you have one of these on order.

Someday I'll have the means to obtain one. For now I'll be OK with the MCS. I just hope that when I'm able to afford one I'll still want it. Seems to me that when I have the means to do something the desire has been replaced with something else.

Alas....post or PM some pics when you get it in - I'm always happy to see pics of the Cobra

Here it is:

'07 G35 S sedan - the daily driver

Cannondale Bike - will fit in the back of the MINI when I want to go ride at the beach

 

Yellow/Black top mini cooper on order...

No "second car" but once I can afford it, I plan on it being some type of motorcycle....

 

No second car here. Tough to keep two cars in the city. If and when I leave, I would probably get a minivan for my two kids if I could convince my wife to drive one.

 

A MINI

I know I probably replied to this thread originally, but times have changed. I own a MINI ('05 MCS) my other car is a Mini ('79 Cooper) and my wife's new car (an MCS) should land in Charleston this coming week. I have a lawn mower too, but that shouldn't count since you have to push it.

 

Second car is a 2007 Prius (Package 6).
