mini family?

So I went to the mini dealership to get the countryman sun shade, which they did not have, and I was waiting for my family to get there (mom and dad) so naturally I was looking at all the caes on the lot. They finally arrived and I showed then the new paceman, and showed my dad the coupe. And he jokes saying we should have an all mini family. I wanted to know is there anyone with an all mini family, by this I mean you a significant other and at least one child that all havr mini coopers, if so which models do you have.

I started it in my family. I bought mine in late 2002, in 2006 we bought a 1974 classic for my wives daily driver, then in 2007 my dad bought a 2005. Unfortunately we had to sell the 74 this winter, and now my wife is driving my dads. So we still have two and are planning to purchase a countryman someday.

Not mine personally, but my MA has an R53, and his wife and both daughters all drive R56 hardtops.

Hey ChefTYGuy!!!
And then in about 40 days you'll be heading to MOTD. See you there.

Just maybe we'll order our R59 by then. but then maybe after we get back. to make two.
