Is this actually a real topic of discussion??

Who cares what others think of you/your car/your choices in life/ or anything else for that matter. Should we hire a new police force? Maybe call them the "Moral" police and they will reprimand those who say things that go against your beliefs?

This is just silly. Personally, I think the CVT is silly and people are lazy not to take the time to learn a stick which is much more fun to drive. But what does my opinion matter to anyone else?

Suck it up. If I went through an entire week of meeting people/working with people/and watching the news and found everyone agreed with me, I would be SICK. I cringe for the day where we can't tell others and they can't tell us what they truly feel. Fake people really bug me. I want people being true to themselves.

Just cheesy.

I have an idea...let's all poo poo the real base MC.

In Britain, apparently they have a model of the MC that is below the Standard MC.

Due to what seems to be popular demand I deleted my original post myself. Sorry if I OFFENDED anyone (like I've never been offended on here) but I was very very angry.

Oh wow, are you way too nice. How many Kit-Kats are you giving to each kid on Halloween? 16 or something?

At least the main topic still shows! :smile:

just remember, everyone... just because you own a MCS, does not mean that you think the MC is a lesser car. I think that certain aspects of the MC are superior, but decided (after months of thinking) that the MCS was for me. Don't get angry at all of us.

Topics like this are just silly. I wish they would be ended before they are started. I posted earlier basically saying this was just a bunch of cheese. L.Mini the origin poster of this topic felt it necessary to send me a private message that I was rude and basically my opinions aren't necessary. I've thought first she/he was just silly.... but now i'm offended. Did the SS take over this board and who gave this person the moral authority? Be careful... this is the next CEO of Enron.

High Anxiety: Please leave me alone. I thought you were being rude before, but that doesn't mean your opinion doesn't matter. Don't be insulted.....it's just MY opinion like you have yours........not all of us can be thick skinned and you hurt my feelings. I private messaged you with MY opinion of what you said because I was trying to keep it off the board (in effect keeping the board friendly as I thought this topic became kinda funny later on) so bringing it up on here again just for sake of argument is just silly.

Now can't we all just get along!!??

PS....and I AM silly! There is no better way to be!

Yes, lets. Opinions are useful, insults and personal attacks are not. Drive what you love. That's my opinion.

Could someone please take a little of the time spent on this thread and jump over to the "Removing Cooper's Space Saving Spare" thread in the "Beneath the Bonnet (Hood)" Forum and advise me about my spare?

Nobody's replied

Thanks and Let's Motor!

We are all in the same family, wait til the wagonette is introduced........just remember it is the driver not the car that makes it go.

For example, I smoked a S in my REGULAR Cooper on a curvy road once they started riding my rear end.........TRYING to make a superiority statement.......must have had small man's complex...I was going to be friendly and wave, but stuff happens when u are pushed.........

MINI, regardless of the dress is a great car...............
