Seen my first other on the road. Was two cars behind one, heading down the Reading road this morning (Winnersh) and then onto the A329. I got stuck at the lights and lost it so couldn't catch up to grab the number. **56MMU

Hi! Actually saw my first GP out on the road!! Was driving through Sunningdale on Saturday morning. Didn't catch the roof number, but it tinted glass all round and had trade plates on, so was probably being taken out for a test drive by some lucky person from the Sunningdale Mini Showroom. I was impressed although my mum was failing to understand the significance!!!

Saw 5, count 'em FIVE, GP's at Santa Anita (Horse) Race Track on Saturday.

So. California MINI Maniacs had their 4th Anniversary party--5 of the 6 member cars that I know of were there. Mine included!

I work in an office in near Stone in Staffs, just down the road from the MINI tuners Lohen in fact.

I heard a motorbike revving in a shed next door, so I went out to have a look, and spotted a Works GP parked next to a caravan on the caravan park next door to my office. Surely they aren't thinking of towing a caravan with the GP, the tyres will explode on the van!

Hello to GP 1354 driving round the mini roundabout in Highgate Village this afternoon

You've taken the red wing mirrors off and replaced them with black ones! I am curious as to why?!?!?!?

I was a bit confused when I first spotted you!

Saw a GP in Barnet/Cockfosters a few days ago, plate number W***RKS (not sure how many stars it should be, 2 or 3! ). Surprised I haven't seen more in the area.
