Sadly, I have to agree also. Or perhaps, as I was thinking this morning, as the R56 PW I was next to for 4 exits on the 405N by Culver City at 615AM and would not turn his head, that many MINI drivers are so focused on the road in front of them, they do not notice anything else. Maybe I am a poor driver who spends to much time looking for other MINI's on the road?

 

if they wave i wave back, i usually dont initiate the wave

 

I think I've seen her a few times too. Very good looking I must say.

 

Man, I hit the jackpot at lunch today. A light blue R56, maximini, on Canoga, then actually spoke to a guy from a club, mininuts, chemikill-x, while getting gas, then a brand new red Clubman S on the 101, exiting with me on Las Virgenes, waves from all!!

 

^^ wow! that must be some sort of record!

 

There a chili red mcs on black rims that i see driving almost every day at work, the guy never even looks over at me! and im driving a chili red mcs with black rims too! lol

Keep an eye out for me in SD!

 

saw a black mc cabrio on mission gorge by the lowe's yesterday...guy didn't even look, and I was following him for a good while (not on purpose...lol).

 

How many of you keep hoping someone will see you and note it on this thread? Anyone have that happen to them? Not counting the significant other ones I have seen.

 

Saw a CR/B Clubman yesterday on the 105 West, got off somewhere before the 710 I think. License plate said MRCOOPA. Cute guys inside.

 

i always see people, but always report back here and never get a spotting. i met a few mini fanatics over at pre m-fest over the weekend, but if anyone here in the valley is interested... pure euro is tomorrow night. pm me for info if your down.

 

spotted, red r56 off mission inn and 91 freeway tonight, i was in my RG r53 with yellow HID fogs...anyone here?

 

Stopped by the Red Bull Mini Cooper down Jamboree (Irvine) for some free Red Bull
hehe

 

Was it in a parking lot next to Pizza Hut?? I think the owner is a fireman across the street, I see it every Sunday morning as I'm having breakfast with
my friends. Keep an eye out for a LY/LY R53, the wife's always in the area (I am regulated to driving her big *** SUV due to gas prices....I work close to home, she doesn't)

 

yea man, exactly, it was leaving the pizza hut area

i dont frequent the area, but will def be on the lookout...sorry to hear about the SUV thing :(

 

Spotted a nice Clubman this morning on my way to work on the 405 north (I was in the bright blue Callenger)


not the best photos.. but it was clean and made me happy

 

Not a fun day for this MINI.. :(

Spotted this on the 405 north this morning..

 

that sucks.... ive seen that car around also!

 

bummer on the 405 w/the ticket. I just got my FIRST speeding ticket ever last week in my mini. So sad...and I totally admit I was going over the speed limit, but everyone was going the same speed, and I just got singled out. It wasn't even on the freeway or anything. BUT...I am glad someone didn't snap a picture of ME! I would've just about DIED!

Thank God for traffic school. whew!

 

that was no ticket.. Look at his front end, its mashed. there's an SUV right in front of him :(

 

Aw I thought the CHP was dressing in office attire all of a sudden!

 

oh haha, I couldn't quite figure out what what up with his wheel well area...lol. don't see the suv though..did it have any damage?

 

Those black wheels look great on that laser blue Clubman. I wonder what brand of wheels they are?

 

Those look like OZ Ultraleggeras. Or maybe R105's?

 

Definitely R105's. OZ's are a lot more straight and there are more spokes.

 

Ya very blurry. I though the OZs at first, but these are way more curvy.
