At the very least, they should be embracing this fact with safety messages in their advertising.


The NEW MINI Checkmate: Electronically tested for your safety

Or maybe, if you are going to get one of these "Checkmate", then you might be needing these "Chekmate" :-D

spotted a B/B Works with bullets.....

Spotted a PS/W MC with bonnet stripes at Killara, then a CR MCS in Chatswood a little later about 3pm

(I've driven Maximas -auto- for 5 years.)

Hey, That was me, rocketminime/Claire, coming off the M2 last night. Thought you must have still been running your mini in as it was the new checkmate wasn't it? Didnt see any problems with your manual driving. Hope to see you round more often.
Cheers

Claire, just took a look in your gallery...... a few of us around here generally agree that the PS/B is the best combo.

Car looks great

Hey Dan,

Thanks, I agree the PS/B does look great, but I also think any Mini looks fabulous what ever its combo.

Spotted, a light blue (I think it could've been Hyber Blue) MCS in Kings Cross this afternoon outside a cafe at around 5pm. Not sure what the street is called but it's round the corner from Hertz. Coul've been the light, but it looked like it had a silver roof....very nice

Hi Claire, nice to meet you.

I just finished running my Checkmate in that weekend. Have done 2,500km now in 16 days. See you round.

[Todd!]

Here you go, this was spotted by a well known 'texer this morning...

[n00b]

Good old FTMINI...that guy probably ran outta dosh so he surrendered that $440/year plate back to the RTA where's his 16" SSR's though I wonder..

[St00ge]

here's one....outside my restaurant, not planned or anything.....



Also for the first time, someone initiated the wave, instead of me...A BRG/W MC. Top stuff

Saw another 130i on bridge road, number plate TZF 311. He was givin it the berries as well, sounds fantastic.
