What town is that anyway Aiden?

Just been out for a 2 hour blast in my Cooper :D
Passed four, yes four new Coopers and not one even waved back :(
Is it me or is Bucks a bit to refined to wave back.
Any friendly MINI drivers out there in the "stockbroker belt"? :p

Ciaran,

Ballyshannon, Co. Donegal.....25 miles from Sligo. A guy used work with me knows the Sligo Westlife guys pretty well, lived next door to one of them , not sure which one though.....

Where are you from originally ?

NO herts is just as bad, i passed 2 coppers today and they just looked at me as if i'm mad, they definately never drove original mini's. Never mind i'll still wave, i'm sure they will get the idea sooner or later!!

Ciaran,

Limerick (city)...just by the Gaelic Grounds if you've ever been. Left about 9 yrs ago though. Would hardly recognise it if I went back there now.

I suppose, Mini's must be a fairly rare sight in Donegal then?

One of only 4 MINI dealers in Ireland is in Letterkenny, they have sold 6 to date, but more on order, though obviously they are spread all over the North-West......Ive only met one other on the road to date.....The Circuit of Irelkand Rally was on over Easter, used 2 MINIS, the Clerk of the Course had one, yellow, with a pink roof !!

hey the irish side of my family is from donegal. small world. =) ok i'll be quiet.

The good old Hills of Donegal !!:)
