Bert Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Just chased a BRG II w/white roof down 270 with MD tags, first glance I thought it was Ernie as he flew past me so I went after him as I got closer realized it wasn't and just tailed him til my exit Lol As you already know, it wasn't me. I was in Reston from 8 AM to 8:30 PM yesterday at work. :banghead: I would hope that I would have noticed you, and I always try to wave. I take the 5th on blowing by anyone.

FAST060 Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Sometimes all cars are MINIs until proven a Non-MINI! I knew I saw a BRG up ahead this AM but the traffic was slugging along. Sure enough... it was HW MINI in all his Hot Wheels glory! I couldn't get a wave in before exiting but I think we exchanged Turbo howls!:rock: https://www.instagram.com/smokiendabandit/ 2009 MCS, HzB/B, CWP, PP, "BLUR" MOTORING ID: SOAR143 - MINI Community Service 2013 JCW GP, Thunder Grey, "SMOKIE" MOTORING ID: FAST060 2014 MCS Clubman, Highclass Gray, "THE ADMIRAL" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I tagged two MINIs in DC today, this is a record for me. There was a Pepper White Clubbie and best of all A HOT ORANGE S, it was like a little naked Tigger, not even stripes. In some ways without any vinyl it looked even more orange!!!!

I've tagged about a dozen since I received the cards fro CMcVeay but I don't think any of them have joined yet. I rolled down the window and conversed with a guy in a clubman this morning at the corner of Baron Cameron & Reston Parkway on my way to work...hopefully he'll join the club. There's a Blue MINI in my apartment complex, I spoke to the owner, I think she's watching the forum...but has yet to chime in or join. I would like to think that EVERY MINI OWNER would join the forum (or want to). Then again I've ALWAYS had an optimistic outlook on everything.

cmcveay Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Some people just aren't social and they buy the cars because they get good gas mileage and it gets them to/from work. That's why I'm never pushy with folks unless they show an inclination to talk cars. Oh, and when I do that, I only talk about their car and how cool it is. 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...
Nanite Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Yes. I have come to the realization that some are MINImaniacs like us and some people just drive a car that happens to be a MINI. I notice EVERY MINI around me and look at the driver of everyone (in hopes of an acknowledgement or a wave) and VERY VERY few (Dayum near none) even look in the direction of another MINI. It's sad. No, it's pathetic. What has this world come to where the SECOND most freedom providing and pleasant experience (driving) has become a secluded isolationist event. Motoring used to be about the open road and sharing, meeting and enjoying new people, places & things. what happened to the passion? Fun? Enjoyment?

It's sad. No, it's pathetic. I notice them all too, and have also rarely even gotten a look in return. I wondered if it was Countryman hate, but that can't account for all of them.
