Vanity Plates

I'm wondering if I should get vanity plates for my new MINI ... and if so, what should they say. Does the list have suggestions?

Silver/Black Cooper, that I drove 548 miles home on April 12 '02 (14th buyer from Morristown NJ MINI). My other transportation is a silver Paso Fino - Happy Trails!

My front plate

This isnt a real plate, but I had it made just for kicks.
The local law inforcement may give me grief about it eventually, but until I get hasseled about it...it will stay.

NY Plate

That's my future plate to the left. My wonderful sales rep. (Lori from Westchester Mini in New York) told me my car will arrive in under three weeks! Woo Hoo!

I'll get regular plates, then NY state will replace them with

For minikid

Minikid,

Would you mind posting the pic of your car without the covers on the spots?

And what model are those spots? I want to get them, but I am not really sure if I want MINI ones.

I like the bigger PIAA lights better than MINI ones.

That's the best looking yellow MINI I've seen yet. And that really is a cool stripe.

Thumbs up Great stripe

I always did think that the stripe was to use for lining up targets of opportunity, well, ok, an aid to keeping a line in a curve.

Really classic looking.

I'm suprised nobody chose AUSTIN, both for the movie and the car maker.

Where can one get those stripes, by the way? I have a Pure Chili Red and am thinking of ways to dress it up . . .

Plates

I think I'll reveal my choice when I officially get approved for them. Playing it safe because we Mini enthusiasts are quite the attention seekers.

PS...hey Jim Ray, nice avatar.

Our first choice was SCARGO, but that was taken and we ended up with CRAMPED.
