Question US or Canadian Dealership Sticker/ Decal

Hello wide MINI world..

I would love a US or Canadian MINI dealership sticker/ decal for the rear window of my MINI. Does anybody out there know of a North American dealership with a nicely designed sticker? Preferably featuring the MINI logo, and location (city and state) of the dealership?

I've spent a lot of time in the US and would love this memento for the car.

I know you're asking yourselves, "what next?!" But thanks in advance for a few suggestions...

How about a license plate frame. This is the only one I have, care to trade?

(The top line says "Elmsford". Westchester MINI is in New York.)

Also, try eBay. You can buy ANYTHING there!

We also have a license plate frame. If you want one, I'll send it to you. I don't have a pic right now, but at the top it says MINI with a logo on either side, and at the bottom it says International Autos. Sorry, no city or state.

Snow creates a chemical imbalance in most peoples brains that makes them forget how to drive.

Minijewel and Jennysup,

thank you for the offers! Unfortunately our plates in Ireland have to be 20 inches long by law (which is one of the reasons our "harmonized" European Union plates are so extremely boring!) The plate holder is the obvious and best option, but a no-go unfortunately. One of the reasons is because of our licence plate format: YR-County-Registration #, so my number for example runs like 02-C-54321, where all the dashes and spaces are required. And there's a little blue EU flag with gold stars on the side, so not much room for anything else! Jennysup, if you'd still like one, that can be arranged! All this means that plates in most EU states (except I think UK and France) are almost the EXACT same at a glance But then by law even bananas have to conform to a certain degree of bendiness in the new Europe... I won't get started.

Thank you! A sticker would still be good, maybe they're not a common thing in the US/Can?

Most dealers stopped using stickers, probably a result of one too many custumers saying "There better not be a %!&*!@! sticker on my car when I pick it up!" To bad about the plates being diffrent sizes I would have loved to trade my plate frame off with somebody.

MINIJewel -
Maybe he'd like one of the Monroney stickers, if you have a customer who doesn't want his/hers?

A little big to be putting in the hatch window (will obstruct driver's vision), but he might be able to get away with it on the driver's rear window.

Thank you all

Monica, I could probably get an Irish plate made to size if you're interested. It would have New Jersey in small font over the number and an EU (or maybe Irish instead..) flag on the left side of the plate. Not sure, but I reckon it could be done.

keep 'em coming!
