At my dealer, two MAs own MINIs, both Cooper S's. They actually own the vehicles, they're not dealer vehicles. That's the first time that I have seen where the salesperson owns the vehicle that they are selling. Hmm, that's something to think about.

 

John, my MA at Patrick MINI owns an MCS, i guess he bought his MINI before he started working there, maybe he just couldnt get enough MINI by just having one.

 

My MA is selling his on the lot to buy his sister one. Aawwwww.

 

Mine has a BMW 5-Series...still in the family...

 

Both MAs at Desert MINI in Las Vegas owned MINIs before they became MAs. They have both since traded their old MINIs for newer ones.

 

None of our MA's own or owned a MINI...

My MA, Gabe at Baron in KC, drives a MINI (2002 or 2003). I think he said he was going to be trading it in on a new one soon.

 

My MA, Crystal at Lauderdale MINI (She became a BMW salesperson back in December) owns a LY/LY '03 MCS.

Marc Holsterberg, another MA at Lauderdale MINI, has owned 2 MINIs. He currently drives a '05 BRG MCSC.

 

My MA, John, at Nashville is on his second MINI.....and posts here on NAM.

 

My MA, Nick Armstrong in Monrovia, CA owns a MINI, it was actually the one I test drove!

 

Neither of my MAs have had one...

but my last SA owned one

 

While no MAs in DC own one that I know of, there's a VW dealership next to a MINI dealership in Sterling, VA. While having a breakfast one morning at that MINI dealership, a group of us were trying to figure out who owned the MINI that was parked on the edge of the VW dealerships' lot so he could move it and park with the rest of us. One of the MAs walked over and told us that it actually belonged to a VW salesperson!

-Paul!

 

Both of my MAs at Long Beach MINI, Tony and Matt, (who work as a team), own MINIs.

 

My MA, Trey Hill of MINI of Dallas, just ordered his after years of torture selling and never owning. Congratulations!

 

I have been a serial MINI purchaser.....never returning to the same place twice until this year. Bought my 2006 from John in Nashville specifically because he is a MINI owner and enthusiast. Plus his personal MINI is PW....the best color, of course.

 

I believe 3 out of 4 MAs at Checkered Flag MINI Virginia Beach, VA are MINI owners. I also think that there are two of the support staff and management own MINIs.

 

I sell BMW's but drive an MCS Both of our MA's plus SA drive MCS's.

 

Racheal at Bill Jacobs owns a MCSC and another MA there owns a white MCS with JCW, both very nice. makes me confident in my car, knowing that the people who actually work with them, own them themselves.

 

likewise!

 

I work as an MA at Bill Jacobs MINI too. I sit next to Rachel. I have owned MINIs since 2003. Currently I own hatchback and cabrio!! Love my MINIs and can't imagine buying and driving anything else.

And yes, all four MA's here own MINIs!

Christina

 

Our MA now owns a MINI. She got it a couple of weeks ago.

 

my MA didn't own one at the time but word has it she's on the list for the GP. at the same dealership the one other MA is the head of our local MINI club and another one seriously races an MCS in SCCA. gotta love it!

 

Some of the people at my dealer do drive MINIs, but them some drive $$$ BMWs
