Question Not a Fan???

Someone who obviously has problem with our beloved margue has been going around the station car park at Colchester, Essex writing the word C**T in the dirt on the boot lid of all the MINIs parked there.

Disgruntled Classic owner?
Recently fired BMW employee??
Local nutter??
Suzuki Swift owner??

Check your boot lid chaps and chapettes! My missus was very upset when she saw it (she is a delicate flower....)

I was upset at first cos I thought it was personal but laughed like a drain this morning when I saw it on another two MINIs. Well, you have to don't you?

Check the CCTV, that should reveal the culprit. ALternatively, park up a very dirty MINI and wait in the bushes.

Sorry to hear that Selina, how annoying

You just need to get a "car park" boggo set for the working week and keep the pink ones in reserve for club runs

Ahh, perhaps they're in fear of the "Cult of MINI", and want everyone to be aware.

That's the suck! Sorry to hear that. Kids round my area keep nicking loads for their bikes, darned little scroats!

As for writing whatever was written on the back of the MINI, wait for him to do it again and then pounce with a tattoo gun and write the same thing on his forehead

Have you ever drunk baileys out of a shoe

I suppose you will always get jealous people.

I would be slightly glad they are only writing in the dirt and not anything else to the car...

Children eh..

I was sat next to a swift at the traffic lights one day when my friend said "they are checking ur car out Ros" I just looked over, laughed and said "yeah, they would be, wishing they had a real MINI" hahaha and with that I gave them a mouthful of my dust hehehee and writing stuff like that in the dirt on MINI's is just embarassing, especially when its a swift owner/or any other car with bonnet stripes/vipers etc there are so many about but they do make me giggle... didn't those little Kias picanto's (or something) have a go too?.. lol bless them...

Yes it's not nice having anyone touch your pride and joy

It's also not nice having a pot at owners at other makes of vehicle

Being a Swift AND a MINI owner driver I resent all infantile and stupid comments made on here If people haven't got anything nice to say then why say it.

I deplore anyone regardless of what car they drive to go tampering with someone elses car but I don't understand why on this site in particular I seem to read idiotic remarks against Suzuki Swifts and worse there owners.

Makes me wanna sell me MINI

because it's a MINI wannabe. it looks like it's trying to be a MINI, you know, the styling, etc.

and when you have someone imitating you, you do stuff like that. had a fellow student in my program at uni who started dressing like me, doing the same hobbies, etc. so of course i did outrageous things to make her do them too. imitation makes you jest at the imitator like that.

Why would you want to sell your MINI?


I'd rather sell a car that has owners that write C**T into other peoples' cars! LOL
