Our first "face print"

on our new '06 CR/W MCS on the driver's window.

You would think people would be more careful when peering inside

Sorry, the rain got to the window before we could get a pic.

I'm sure it will happen again, (and again etc), but that is the fun of a mini

Why? It's only glass, easy to clean, and it's a sincere compliment that someone was that interested!

I got a little child's handprint on my rear, driver's side glass once. I might have been pissed, too.....but I thought it a compliment.

Another time at covered parking at the airport...someone wrote "Cool Car" in the dust on my rear glass (it'd been sitting all week...got real dusty). Again, a compliment.

I guess I don't care or blame them...just don't accidently mess anything up please!!!!

I dont mind people looking, but my saying is:

If you run your fingers over my car, I'll run my car over your fingers.

Hey citydweller,

Are you going to have to park your's on the street? The Mini is certainly great being so small that it fits into way more spots - but those NY streets can be tough.

I once had a Honda CRXsi, really fun car. I parked it in a nice spot, came out the next morning and it had been moved down 4 or 5 spots. Could have been a bunch of drunk college guys having some fun. No damage was done but it was kind of odd. A Mini is much heavier so I doubt anything like that would ever happen.
