You begin to refer to your Mini as "My Precious."

When with friends, you insist on taking two cars so you can drive.

 

By chance did you do a search on this? because there are many, many threads ...

 

I did, but nothing came up. Perhaps the mod will delete the thread then.

 

No, its cool. I was just pointing out that this comes up from time to time, thats all.

I hope lots of ppl add to it ... nothing wrong with enthusiastic FUN!!!

You know your a MINI owner when you get up a 2 AM to look at your car!

 

You know you are a MINI owner when, you spend hours a day on NAM.

You know you are a MINI owner when, you walk backwards from parking your car.

I caught myself doing that more than once.

 

You know your a MINI owner when....
everytime you go to a MINI event you take BOTH cars instead of riding with each other

 

Good thread idea!

You tell your car "Good Morning" and/or "Good Night".

LMAO when I read this one because all I could think of was Gollum in The Lord of the Rings but I agree with you!

 

Here ya go Mike!

 

 

Although there have been similar threads over the years, I am going to let this one roll, and not merge it. Always nice to revisit this topic.

 

...when you have over 7000 hits to NAM in a week on your works internet traffic report.. Then have to delete those logs... (It pays to be in IT)

 

i did that all the time.


Or when you just get in it and drive and have no real place to go but just to drive it.

 

You chase a similar MINI through your neighborhood honking and waving wildly while saying "LOOK PENELOPE!! It's your sister!"

Did that today. Hubby, and other MINI driver, thought I was NUTS

 

...you're SO goes out of town and you wash his MINI because it's at your place and could use a little shine!
(Dylan got a bath the weekend before so she was okay with it. )

 

When not in the car, you feel anxious without your keys somewhere on your person. I know I get like that.

 

^ Yup. Happends to me all of the time! My keys fell out in another car and luckly another person found them for me. I was more worried that I wasn't going to get to drive my MINI home rather than someone steal it!

Your GF washes your MINI while you're out of town. :D

You know you're a mini owner...when you start dressing to coordinate with your car's color. LY by the way.

 

Yeah, I love to wear black now!!

 

You know you're a Mini owner when you find yourself sneering at VW GTi's.

 

You know you're a MINI owner when....
you buy a trailer hitch and then a trailer kit, assemble the entire thing, paint it black and start to buy decals for the trailer. All this so you can take the MINI on any upcoming road trips instead of the nice big truck with DVD players and all kinds of cargo room
See trailer, after paint, but before sides and decals

I see those all the time at Solo 2 events. The Mini drivers use them to haul their mounted racing slicks to the event.

 

Well, I will also use it to haul wheels, an EZ Up, chairs and my cooler to Driver's School, so I had an ulterior motive!

you know you're a MINI owner when...

you drive your friend's SUV and nearly roll it over forgetting to slow down on a wicked turn!
