Does your MINI have a name?
OH, I'll make a bet everybody would get it! Especially if you accessorize w/ the Union Jack even a little bit... One of the MINIs I saw at the GWR (see the vanity plate thread) had Union Jack STRIPES, w/ the OBHAVE license plate. Makes the whole, "2 + 2..." connection easier for those not-so-sharp people....

I wanted to go with GoKart or CooPah but i think they are taken...is there a thread on custom plate names??
Congrats, futuremini! I saw your pics on the OL site -- Rowan is very handsome indeed! 
Hmm...good idea, and it's still available. It looks like we can't use spaces though, and it's a 6-character limit. So I'd have to do it this way:
OBHAAV
Whaddaya think? I'm sure most people wouldn't get it.

That should work for the tag too.

The Southern Highway is still carrying my 08 MY hardtop. Her name will be Josephine. All of my grandmother's cars were named Josephine so it seems fitting. Her nickname will be MOTOJO. Can't wait!

finally figured out a name
sorry if I posted twice...
Anyway, I finally figured out a name! Stanley.
My MINI will be coming on the Fidelio next week and Stanley Kubrick used Fidelio as the password in Eyes Wide Shut.

We thought really hard about using Stanley Cooperick but Daphne was just too girly.

Moose
Yup, my EB/W Mini is called Moose. It has a roof rack for two bikes ( Antlers) and it goes into full rut mode on the weekends. We, the GF and I , carve the twisties on the car and bikes.
too funny

My Mini is called: Tradition
It plays both on the tradition of the car, as well as the tradition of the Crimson Tide football team, which is my team of choice.
The checkerboard theme has implications both of the racing tradition of minis, as well as the fact that it resembles the famous houndstooth hat pattern worn by Bryant.
