VioletDC Posted June 3, 2016 Report Posted June 3, 2016 On the way home yesterday, I spotted a PH MCS on Rt. 7 before Leesburg!!! Honked & waved (excitedly) & got a spirited wave back! It's not often we run in2 PH MINIs! 'scuuuuze me while I kiss the sky ~ Jimi
Sporkeh Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 Saw a really nice 2D JCW that was dark gray with black stripes and a black top on 395 South Monday on the way home. Why couldn't they make the 4D a JCW model too?!

Sporkeh Posted June 15, 2016 Report Posted June 15, 2016 The 2D JCW has an updated engine and interior. Nothing wrong with the JCW Countryman, but the updates are the reason I went with the 4D instead of the Countryman.

German Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 I saw a red cabrio. Waved at the guy in the hat, and he looked at me almost disgusted, like thinking, "really..."

splat Posted October 22, 2016 Report Posted October 22, 2016 Left a "tag" note on a green MINI cabrio with white stripes that has been coming to the Saturday 8am class at Orange Theory Fitness in Fairfax for the last few weeks. Tried asking who's it was as I was leaving the 7am class but no one claimed it. If it was you, hope to see you at MINI's take the beltway!! 2011 Spice Orange Cabrio - embracing the chrome!

chrimson Posted December 2, 2016 Report Posted December 2, 2016 Passed Mr. OEM on I-95 N today at 3:30 between Exits 158 and 160. Honked and waved to Susan driving, but she didn't notice. One last honk as I waved in the rear window, not sure if I was finally seen. Hi again anyway :itsme: -Chris

One last honk as I waved in the rear window, not sure if I was finally seen. Hi again anyway :itsme:Haha Chris - I just saw this and showed it to Susan... she was very surprised and sorry she didn't notice you... she was so paranoid driving my car, not wanting to wreck it... that she just wasn't on the lookout for other MINIs. Oops! We switched cars today, so I could come back home early from work and take my parents to the airport in her car (3 checked suitcases and 2 carry-on suitcases, plus both of them... just not enough room in either of my cars without a roof rack installed).

chrimson Posted December 3, 2016 Report Posted December 3, 2016 I'm sure I just need to wear as many pieces of flair -Chris
melissa99 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Posted January 13, 2017 I had a brief 'spirited' run with a white MCS, black stripes, MD tags (Sherm?) on 66W this morning. I took the exit and they beeped as they passed. A nice start to the day!
GreenCactus Posted February 8, 2017 Author Report Posted February 8, 2017 I'm pretty sure I saw Melissa and Domo on my way home tonight. It was around 5:30ish on the inner loop near the exit for the GW Parkway. I was in the far right lane and you were in the far left. Hi!! :motor:
melissa99 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Posted February 10, 2017 Yup, I'm in that area every day around that time. Hi! :motor: :wavey:
chrimson Posted February 20, 2017 Report Posted February 20, 2017 I guess at least one of us should record the successful pass-by wave on outer Beltway around Exit 44 at 5pm Friday. I didn't react immediately to GreenCactus and Cricket's freakin foghorn because I knew I wasn't doing anything wrong minding my own business in the slower lane. But hearing it a second time right next to me nearly ripping my eardrum in half, I look to my left and see Laura excitedly waving and I wave back, just as excitedly :itsme: HI! -Chris
