Germany MINI car spotting thread in Germany!

Guys! We already have that in Australia, and it's quite a success:

If you spot a MINI, post it in this thread. If you are being spotted check this thread and make some comments.... simple, isn't it?

Don't forget to wave and cheer like a lunatic to other MINI drivers, flash your lights and sound your horn! After all, this is the best car in the world!

So here I start:

The only MINI I spotted today is... my own...

I think YOU can do better than that....

Cheers from Nikola (currently living in Western Australia)

I live 500m from the German border in the Netherlands, can post if I spot a German Mini in the Netherlands or spot a Dutch Mini when I go and get the much cheaper fuel in Germany (or go to the German autobahn which has NO speed limit )?

Of course you can! The more, the merrier

I think the fuel in Germany is really expensive by the way... I pay only 1 dollar per liter, that's approximately 75 Euro cents...

Welcome to the thread!

Hello all!

I just have a hint for you all!:

Have a look at the Community, Social &Region Specific - Australia or UK 7Ireland...

Your discussion bard must be one of the lamest on the whole world I'm afraid to say so...

What's up with you guys?

Hey Funsize,

The biggest problem is that most of us have local messageboards (nl, be, de, fr ....)
where most of the talk is being held.

Most of the Europeans just come on M2 to have a look here at meetings or the other specialized forums.

I spot about 15 MINI's a day if you want to know

Thanks for your reply Morty!

I see your point.

Well if there's no need for a forum, why bother ... ? I admire, that you're still posting then

You're really spotting 15 MINIs a day? Wow.... cool...

Let me know if I should close this thread

Thanks

There will always be need for a European forum... there's still some countries who don't have any in their own language en also for foreigners to get in touch... In English

I do spot about 15 a day because I work in Brussels where I see a lot, but live near Antwerp where I see a lot too. In my immediate surroundings there's about 5 people with a MINI already

Plus I spotted a dark silver MCS on Leach Highway today... err yesterday around 4.30 pm...

Can't sleep, cause it's so hot and humid here, hence I got up to do a bit of posting...

MINIs Spotted in Luxembourg!

I spotted no less than 8 today on the autoroute! But as they were all on a car transporter, I suppose that doesn't count?

Not here much any more
