I own, motor in and love my 2005 MC, Star Wars themed.

My wife owns - and has for over ten years - a 1995 Honda Civic Hatchback with 80K miles on it and it runs better each year.

We do not drive each other's vehicles.

MTFBWY,

2003 BMW 325xi. 3rd car is a 1991 Volvo 240 - winter only.

 

Our other ride is a 2004 Nissan Titan LE since we pull a horse trailer once in a while. I usually park the 06 CR MCS in the bed!

Both are our daily drivers, but I DRIVE THE MINI!

 

Sounds like some of the most popular B cars are trucks/SUVs and Miatas.

I'm in the latter camp. In the summer, my A car is a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata. In the winter, the 2005 MCS is the A car and the Miata makes cameo appearances when the weather is nice enough.

 

Besides the MCS JCW (which I haven't actually bought yet, but that's getting technical don't ya think?) we have an 04 MB C240 4matic and an 02 MB G500. And I also have an 03 Suzuki Volusia freezing it's a** off in our garage and getting mad at the weather since I haven't rode it in 4 months. And we don't plan on getting rid of any of those vehicles with the purchase of the MCS.

And I have a 17' Old Town in storage with our dock for the winter.

And I've got my eye out for a 72 MB SL350 in good shape, no rust etc...

 

Is it too personal to ask why you don't swap vehicles at all? My wife has the Passat SW as her primary car, but she's also pretty happy when I leave our MCS parked at the back of the drive and she ends up driving that. I used to like the VW, but hate driving it now after the MINI. If it's just me, I'll take the moto, but usually it's me and my daughter in the MINI or all of us in it. The SW is just when we need to haul something that I can't figure a way to get in the MINI. I'll probably add the roof rack soon enough, so there will be NO good reason NOT to take it.

 

i also own moped

 

If I am not driving my Cooper S, I am either in this 1999 MCoupe



Or on top of this cool ultralight Litespeed Ghisallo :-)



Yeah baby.

1999 Ford SVT Contour ( a real steamer) 1959 Morris Minor Traveller, 1967 Austin Mini 850, 1990 Buell RS1200, 1989 Kawasaki KLR650, 1999 HD FLHTCU-I . And I'm going :impatient trying to keep everything running & in$ured

 

Sunroof and image conscious wife...

But you should see them howl with laughter at Lowe's when I pull up in the MINI and get out in my paint stained coveralls...

 

I have a Yakima detachable roof rack and a sunroof (but no image conscious wife) and I've brought home a stack of 2x4s on the MINI...

 

Our other "cars" are a Dodge Ram 2500 with Cummins turbo diesel and a Toyota Tundra. Mini is the most fun.

 

When my MINI arrives in a few weeks my Ford F350 diesel crew cab will become my second vehicle, used mostly to haul the horses and hay. The truck is also kind of fun to drive though.

 

yep! my second car is my Honda GL1800....

And it is just about a heavy as the Mini..


LOL

 

2005 was a big car buying year for us. First was the EB/W MCS (used for snow/ice; has Nokian snow tires). Then we leased a '05 Honda s2000 (leftover, in Rio yellow).

Still breaking the Honda in. Have to get my confidence back with rear wheel drive.

 

I have the 05' MCS, my own 2nd car is a 98' Isuzu Trooper, my wife has her 04' Acura TL, which is also mine

 

Here is my other car:

2005 Cooper S vert and a 2005 Mustang GT

 

lol... I have a 2006 Mustang GT and just ordered a 2006 Cooper S vert

nice fanblades BTW!

 

You guys got it all wrong! You're supposed to have a Cooper S and a Mustang GT convertible! (like me!)

The Mustang is the original convertible car. Heck, Mustangs should only come in convertible, IMO. They look much better - top up or down.

 

here is the daily driver:


and the toy:


the Mini is almost at 20,000 in 3 years I really need to drive it more.

 

if your MCS was Pepper White with a black top I'd be freaking out right now..it would be the precise opposite of my pair

 

I feel like mine are already opposites!
MINI - white roof, white mirrors, hatch, 6 speed manual, 4 cylinder, supercharged, modified, front-wheel drive, blue interior, light touch auto down windows, no auto up windows, smallish thick, sensitive steering wheel.
Mustang - black roof, black mirrors, 5 speed manual, 8 cylinder, naturally aspirated, stock, rear-wheel drive, red interior, double click auto down windows, auto up windows, classic big, thin, turn many times with your palm steering wheel.

 

i have an 97 corvette and a 06 chevy pick up

 

my other vehicle is kitted out for the extreme of road handling (or lack of road handling)
