It's the Cooper!!!

So I can't afford to be the "private country club" kind of guy - but I have a friend who can and is.

My wife and I join them at "the club" for supper the other night. We give the MINI to the valet to park.

Now the parking lot is full of every kind of high-end car you can imagine - most costing over 6 figures. We come out at the end of the evening and hand our check stub to one of the valets. He looks at the number and turns to the other valets and says in a loud, excited voice - "IT'S THE COOPER!!!" The others watch, green with envy, as he runs to the lot to bring us our MINI.

I LOVE this car...

The only time my MINI was valet parked, I came out to find that they had parked it in the very best spot right in front of the restaurant. Gotta love it!

Hahahaha, good story.:thumbsup:

Awesome story! My friend is a valet guy and he said they always love it when they get to park a MINI.

Everyone loves the Cooper,even the ones that claim they don't.

UPS came to the door just yesterday and told me he always wanted one. A 10 minute discussion ensued.
