Spotted!

Am I right in thinking that this forum doesnt have a section for when you have spotted fellow Mini's zooming about, or have I just not found it yet?

I see quite a lot of Mini Convertibles where I am because I live about a mile away from BMW UK HQ and I think everyone that works there owns one. I also spotted a red convertible in the car park of M&S yesterday, taking up two bays so nobody can get near and scratch it.. awwww.

b3 gmk... that'll be 2 triple black mini cabs driving round our area this sept then

Although mines not due until mid-Sept!

I'll stick to the A303 on the way to work in Basingstoke so that we don't get confused on the B3400!

And I guess the Cool Blue was the one you saw in Basingstoke.

Where are you getting yours from?

Ours came from Lovett in Swindon.

Scotthalls in Eastleigh for me. So far so good, still due at their place 17th Sept - I'm away on business the following week so probably won't get it until the 24th

We tried them first. We bought our previous car from them (Z3) but when we ordered in May they had no allocation. Lovetts promised mid August and were spot on.

Luck of the draw I suppose - placed our order in Jan as I was meant to be in the US all year - originally wanted delivery next March for my return. then project got canned in May came back and they'd 'accidently' put my order on the system so got a Sept slot.
