Oh don't leave me out! I'm 22 and my mini will be arriveing anyday now. Also an art student, about to graduate with a bfa in Illustraion. And that is how I earned my mini, working my butt off(people who think art school is easy don't know anything). Also, Zerocharisma should be in this club too. He's 18 and is a fellow CWFA cluber.

>>Are there any younger Mini drivers out there, like under 25? I feel kind of lonely. I am 18, and it seems like most of the members are older adults.

i'm 18, but my body thinks i'm 38

I feel all left out now, not being an art student and all. Arn't there any engineers out there that aren't too busy in the lab, to have traded the pocket protector and graphing calculator for some taste??

>><------- 19. If a young mini owners club is formed then does that mean you have to leave the club when you get old? Just wondering.

Yes, just like that old 70's sci-fi movie "Logan's Run".


Happy Motoring!

17 yr-old EB/W MCS driver here! Took delivery on Dec. 30th, turned 17 Dec. 31 and got my license! No problems since. I too haven't seen any mini drivers around my area under 30-ish.

Ok guys, I will try and make a site. Not to familar with HTML either. I can make graphics and turn them into html files and link it all up. It won't be the fastest page in the world. I can have a forum there too if you want. Not as well made as this one, but ok. Tell me what you guys want.

Wow I cant believe how many art students and young people are on here. I am 23 and graduated with a degree in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts. Looks like me and Katie got a lot in common! I work for MINI but I am freelancing childrens books, and painting on the side.

YES WE ARE OUT THERE!
IL Tech. BSEE class of '98, working as a systems engineer now for ATT Wireless.
I'd have to say going from an engineering practical car (ford tarus) to the MINI was a change for the better!!

Chollomo, I LOVE your sig pic:

Did you make it yourself? If so, I would seriously consider submitting it to MINIUSA!

Cheers,
Ryan

I turned 21 yesterday. Work fulltime and paying for the car myself. I'll probably go back to school soon though and work part-time so I can keep the car.

pezxboy on AIM.

( If you can spell "Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University" it doesn't matter how old you are ... you're just too old ..)

But how about a late-40's guy? in dog years that's like ... 7 ..... (i'll bring the beer)
