Had a second car for a short time, but sold it within a few months of getting the MINI.

That '95 Accord, while surprisingly good looking and decent, couldn't hold a candle to the MINI, even after $3,000 in modifications ($3K goes much further in the Honda world than the MINI world).

 

2002 Nissan Frontier 4X4, Crew Cab, Long Bed.

Funny that being a small pickup and the way I ordered it with the Crew Cab and Long Bed, it's got a wheel base as long as a full size pickup.

 

They don't exist at ALL?!

 

I've got an 04 Jeep KJ Sport 4x4 with(Frankenlift II, Jeepin by Al UCAs, All J Boulder Bars, 245/75/16 Maxxis Bighorns on Rubicon Moabs). She's great off-road, but not so nimble in traffic.

Just ordered my MCSa last week! Let the modding begin

 

Just so Kentiki doesn't feel left out...

 

Thats not a small pickup . I have to look up at all pickups. Here is an example. Big trucks are good for parking under in bad weather.

 

 

These are mine below...

 

2005 Pontiac Vibe

 

1986 toyota corolla (a mini's worth of money invested), 2008 subaru impreza

 

 

99 Bagged Ex-cab Silverado

 

'99 Arctic Silver M Roadster.

And it's FOR SALE!!
(I don't need two toys, and the MINI is more fun! )

 

My other vehicle is a 2007 Harley Ultra Classic

 

Don't have my MINI yet, pick up expected week of July 20. However, this is my toy. Have a beater Volvo wagon and family Excursion as well.
Cheers,
John

 

I have two additional cars.

2003 Landrover Discovery
1979 Triumph Spitfire

 

2008 Prius

But it's a Touring Prius. Oh yes. The "Sporty" Prius. Somewhat like a humpback is a skinny whale.

*sigh* That's why I drive the Mini

 

Right. The Mitsubishi FTO was never sold in the U.S., nor was any other car that shared its platform. So, where it's possible to import something like an Evo VI, which can (in theory) be registered as a U.S. Mirage, the FTO cannot be registered here. I've never seen one in the U.S.

For that matter, even in Japan they're scarce.

My current second car:



--Dan
Mach V

 

 

My wife drives a 2004 VW beetle convert. (orange). We also have a 2000 Chrys van (green) (for the antique business) and a 2002 GMC 1/2 ton (silver) for the trailers (also for the antique business). From all that you'd think the antique business is going great these days! You'd be wrong!

 

Husband rides a 2002 Vespa ET4. The 99 Passat is out the door as soon as the MINI arrives. Only other car is my '68 Cougar, of which I am the second owner (after my aunt who only reluctantly passed her along in 2002 or so).

 

We also have a 08 Toyota Corolla. It gets better mileage than "Pearl" but is not nearly as much fun to drive.

 

My wife and I are currently waiting for our MINI's. She is getting the Pepper White MC auto with all the bells and whistles. I am getting the MCS in Chile red as well with the 6 speed and all the bells and whistles. We just placed our order on Sunday so we have a while to wait. In the meantime I am driving a 2005 GTO. 6.0 V8 400 HP. Nice car. Has 75000 miles of pure fun on it. I just sold my wifes 2005 Toyota Corolla so she is driving my 2007 Mazda 3. Once we get the MINI's in we plan to sell the Mazda. I should be able to get a fair price for it. It's paid for and only has 6500 miles on it.

The GTO will remain in the stable even after the arrival of the MINI's. It's just too much horsepower to get rid of. Though the MINI's always pass me in the corner I get em on the straights. Pure fun!!

Regards,

Pat

 

1998 Dodge Ram Cummins
1929 Model AA Ford Stake bed 1.5 ton truck

OK, the '29 Ford really isn't a daily driver, but darn near . All of them are great in different ways. However, of all the modern cars I've owned, the MINI is the most fun all around. Never thought I'd enjoy driving him this much

 

To go along with my '05 JCW, the hubby just traded in his '03 modded to the hilt EVO to get a Clubman. The third car is an '05 Scion xB. We keep discussing if we really need to keep the xB but it's paid off and is rediculously practical and having it means that my very low to the ground JCW doesn't have to drive in the snow
