Came upon this family going North on the 5 - Leucadia area - NO WAVES!! Booo.... We even pulled up along side of them - they must have thought we were nuts....oh well -



Somebody else likes going to Target beside us - LOL!! Spotted in Encinitas.



Someone just got themselves a beautiful Clubbie with the new style roof rack. Carlsbad area is where we spotted it. Took the shot this way so all of you could get a good view of the rack.



Now this one - it's REALLY HARD to see - I enlarged the picture as much as I could - you can just barely make out the tail light in front of the silver car - (left side of the Black Prius). We got stuck at the light and couldn't catch up - this was in the La Costa area.



Woottt - 6 more points.......

This one I'm posting just for fun. We had not ever seen this advertisement before - LOL!!!



We saw TONS of MINIs everywhere yesterday - I guess we all had the same idea - get out and motor on such a nice day - or run a bunch of errands...

Donna

EBH, sweet job! I was starting to wonder about pure silver MINI being a Clubman. That would have been really cool!!!

Donna - congrats. That's pretty cool.

I had a good Saturday too...

This BRG beauty was seen outside of my lunch time Moes.




Then came this beaut heading to the local art/craft show...



Here is one seen on my way to Disney. We tracked them around a roundabout probably could have followed them around a couple of times.



Then at Disney I saw this beaut..

Thanks guys. It was a weird, but fun weekend. The Clubman I chased around the roundabout must have thought I was a nut. (only if he knew me! )

Whatever they're putting in the water, send me a tanker of it! I need to dump it into Texas' water supply!

Nice captures everyone! Thanks for creating a leader board Parkerton -- fun to watch two races going on right now!

It is great to see all the color combos and Clubman in the wild! Keep spotting and posting!

Very impressed by everyone else's "captures"...saw one the other day, but by the time I got to my camera (I was not driving), the CR/BLK MCC was off onto another highway. You all are very fast on the shutter!
