MINI2

sully5059 · Oct 15th, 2005, 03:48 PM

I've seen a lot of Mini drivers on the A465 between Abergavenny and Ebbw Vale lately, but most of them look really fed up and don't wave. There is one driver of a black Cooper with white bonnet stripes and checkered roof that never fails to wave though...hello, if you're on here

I'd also be interested to know if either of the ladies who were in a cool blue convertible in Abergavenny are members of this site. You'll surely remember me if you saw me today, because you were driving behind me when I was distracted and did something really stupid (accidentally). It looked like you had a laugh at it...very embarrassing...the 2 friends who were in the car with me will certainly never let me live it down!

Late afternoon today EB/Black MCS with stripes and spots...M5 southbound from Weston Super Mare...I turned off at Exeter. I saw your hazzards as I turned off

Sparkly new 55 reg Hyper Blue Cooper on the A14 heading towards Stansted airport tonight (about 7.30pm). Nice looking car, even in the dark

Overtook you and did the lorry indicators thing (indicate in, then out, then in) to say hello but no response

Also many Minis down Godalming/Chichester way this morning and early this evening, but none of you waved back either

ScaryLady · Oct 15th, 2005, 10:51 PM

...BEP cooper parked with its bottom facing the sea at Tynemouth today...

don't see many BEP's about so I tend to notice them (I have one)

Friday night about 6.30pm, I was heading away from Cannock down I think the A460 towards Brownhills and stunning lady was cruising towards me in a LY MINI One, but not just a standard One

How come I never see any minis to wave to when I'm in Cannock area?

Make regular trips to Hednesford and Cannock to visit my gran, but don't see many minis

Well, if I did have icicles in my hair, nobody would have noticed because at the moment, I am mostly wearing my hair like Calvin:

So as you can see... my hair is icicly already

Fantastic!

note the use of the word cruising

don't think she was paying attention though, as she didn't wave or flash back, or maybe she didn't expect to see me in that neck of the woods

Stunning electric blue cooper s with no. 11 on the sides & chequered roof reg V11 CKY going into baldwin street NCP Bristol this morning, made a great sound.

Well I live at Pontrilas, which is just off the A465, between Abergavenny and Hereford! My family run a business in Cwmbran, so whenever I'm home from uni, I can be found terrorising those roads at naughty speeds!

saw a Park Lane MINI leaving Thornhill park and ride today in Oxford at about 5:20, got a pic of it, its not that great but here it is any way

wonder if your on here!

minicore · Oct 22nd, 2005, 12:07 PM

Saw loads at the Trafford Centre yesterday, including a DS/B MSC, colour coded with chrome mirrors who seemed to take great pleasure in flying past me as soon as we were back on the motorway! Soon caught up though, thanks to some bloody van driver holding up the fast lane!

Nice car though, seen it parked at B&Q in Blackburn not so long ago, too. (Private "V2" reg, if anyone knows it?)

MaTTy_P · Oct 22nd, 2005, 12:58 PM

spotted a lovely fully aero'd black cooper w/viper stripes with about 3/4 people in...all staring at my car when headed home from work near four lane ends

made me smile, and a little jealous.

Racey · Oct 22nd, 2005, 06:22 PM

Electric Blue Cooper S

Parked up outside the Fox and Hounds in Shenstone

I'm guessing your owner was sitting in the window grinning at me as I drove past?

baskers · Oct 23rd, 2005, 07:13 PM

Saw two today, right after one another.

One was a Liquid Yellow/White Mini on the M25 J9 roundabout (Chessington/Gatwick end).

Another one was a Cooper, Blue/White going towards Leatherhead, Surrey from J9, M25.

Almost waved at the first... but I haven't got my MINI, yet...

Blue Cooper with white roof. I followed you on Saturday over Northam Bridge Southampton and past St Mary's Stadium. Didn't think you would wave (female) then I spotted a Mini2 sticker in your back window and decided you probably would and yes you had seen me in your rear view mirror and waved back. That was nice. Then we both met a black cooper? at the traffic lights who waved to us both in turn. Good day for waving on Saturday
