Awesome Joep and Jameszimo! Joep, when I read your post, the 1st word that came to mind was stalking as well

When I tell some people about this competition, they say "that's awesome!" And then I tell other people and they're like....

I'm glad I found my peeps

Okay... When Lady G said I was a stalker I was offended (not really) but now two or three of ya are telling me I was then all I can say is "guilty as charged your honor." I still get my points!

But I gotta tell I'm not that good at this game (stalking that is) because one of my neighbor's daughter has a PW/B Clubman and I haven't caught her in my neighborhood. Just wait, I'll get a picture of that Clubman soon enough.

Joep, please don't be offended (even though you're not ). If I had a Clubman to stalk, I'd be stalking too!

Nice catch jameszimo! I was on I-5 today with camera in hand ready to catch some since I was taking a way I never do during the weekday and *nothing*...

Around Seattle I've seen two PW's, one BRG, one LB, and one DS, that's it.
Need more Clubman! (enter gong of cowbell)

Nice work LadyG. This is of course just step 1 of 12, Joe. I am going to have to enter my own program as I am now having nightmares that my Clubman arrives and had bumper damage.

Guys, as long as I don't get arrested for this, I'll keep stalking... I think it's funny because when my wife riding with me (when we go out of town) she has a camera in her purse. It's constantly ready.

And I'm not offended. In fact, I think it's classic.

I need to start getting my camera ready for ANY MINI. I saw another Clubman yesterday with no pic because I had assumed it was a Cooper since it was yellow. Dangit.

I've done that 3 times this week! a lady up here has a Silver Clubman, and TWICE i've seen it and thought it was a cooper, and missed out.

Noticed a lady at the YMCA the other day with a blue clubman leaving as I was pulling in. It was too crowded and traffic was crazy, so I didn't even try to capture it. but at least I know to keep an eye out for her the next time I go.

I watch for Clubmans while I'm at stop lights, driving, on the freeway, on surface streets, parking lots - you name it.

Yes, that is the same cure I'm hoping for as well, for public safety at least.
