isn't it area 51?

orrr... "R53" is that what you're playing?

I've got my form ready for "BIGNUF" (clubman, get it?)... need to drop it off and then wait.

I've heard of Area 51 so is Area 53 a secret alien base also?

Okay, so yeah technically it is area 51, but that was taken and so was area 52...but get this "Roswell" my beloved new-2-me mini is an R53. So what better than AREA 53. It is a play on both! Plus I'm a math teacher so having something like area is "geek-hip".

I love BIGNUF...and I think I get it.

Jeebus. I want my ashes scattered in Spinned's garage. Looks like heaven.

I've had CHEEKY in New Mexico and now Tennessee. I'm a total Anglophile, and the car is British and sassy!

Awesome outfits, great minds must think alike! Here is a pic of my wife and I a couple of summers ago:

Not on a MINI, but the best plate I've seen in a long time: late summer I was at a traffic light w/ a Boxster in the left-turn lane beside me - a nod exchanged between us, then as the left arrow went green and she pulled ahead I saw: "WEWONIT" - very cool!

Maybe w/ all these MINIs "the Price is Right" is giving away, someone can use it...

I'm thinking about

HAD2HAV

I threw a fit when I first saw this car, and luckily my husband agreed to get it for me.

Any suggestions would be appreciated! Maybe something relating to it being a convertible. (Not TOPLESS ), can be 7 spaces.

THanks!!!

One more that I like is

DORY

the bright blue optimistic, caring, and sociable fish with a short term memory loss from Finding Nemo

Would anyone get it?

Thanks again!

I've got BLUZRULZ on my Electric Blue, but maybe you can work it down to seven letters with BLUZRUL if you want to go with your car color reference. Another of mine has MNIATURE, which you could work into seven by leaving off the E.
