Rahm Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Just picked up my "new to me" 2006 MCS today wanted to see what kind of community Mini's had.. apparently just as much as Jeeps! So Hi and how ya'll doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcveay Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Hi Rahm! Tell us about your MCS. Funny you mention the similarity to Jeep owners. I drove a '77 CJ-7 for about 6 years and I liked the way Jeep drivers always waved to each other on the road. MINI's are like that as well. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahm Posted May 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Well, she is chili red (arrest me red) no stripes or other things on the outside, and the roof matches the body colour, also have the Dinan S2 kit in there, feels pretty darned quick, and the most fun driving I have ever had on asphalt. this is my first foray into anything that wasn't a jeep. I have had 3 wranglers, 3 cherokees, still have my '03 Rubicon, its up on 33's (want to go back to 35's for off roading since I have a mini for the street now) it is a whole universe of difference in the way they drive. So there IS a mini wave eh? thats great, now I will be waving at mini's from my jeep and vice versa, hope people understand.. gets worse when I wave at jeeps from my work Vehicle. does the "Want" to go back outside and spend the night driving around go away after a while?

GreenCactus Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 does the "Want" to go back outside and spend the night driving around go away after a while? Nope. Congratulations on the MINI! Hope to see you at an event soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAVELOY1 Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Hi Rahm! nice to know the wave is appreciated, have had a few times where I have been caught waving to another owner only to be ignored or looked at sideways...won't give up though. Keep the wave alive brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonshungry Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 does the "Want" to go back outside and spend the night driving around go away after a while? Hahaha, I still feel this way. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
