HOLY CRAP thats a muddy Mini!!!!!
Where the hell did you go with it!?!

Good to see the rear washer/wiper was still able to clean rather nicely with all that dirt!

Shoulda seen me at tthe fill station trying to squeegee the window off…

Yick. Thank goodness it rained all day today. Still can't read my license plate though. Last night a friend "wrote" stop into my tailights.

Not an unusual sight here in CT. They lay down dirt instead of sand.

Oh, funny Obe! Real funny!

By the way I have a fear of all carwashes and it's too damned cold to wash by hand lately.

Nothing beats reaching under for the boot latch and getting a hand full of mud.

GMINI,

It just looks like a very happy MINI.

obhave,

I thought that was very cleaver

EBMCS03 · Feb 23rd, 2003, 05:06 AM

OMG!! that poor car!

BruceK · Feb 23rd, 2003, 06:32 AM

Ummm... I understand why you don't want to wash the whole car, but it might just be a good idea to clean off those rear taillights so you don't win the "Mudiest Mini Involved in an Accident" award.

Never mind the mud, what's the go with the steel wheels????

MINI's are like babies... they always have dirty bottoms.

Yup.

You should have seen mine before I washed it today

But it's sparkling now

mtnMINI · Feb 24th, 2003, 12:26 AM

I thought mine was bad - I was wrong!
How would rear mud-flaps help the situation, if at all? I'm considering them...

GMINI · Feb 24th, 2003, 04:14 AM

The unofficial word on mudflaps is that they are an ineffective and unsightly addition.

Can we make that official now?

Plus, the mud flaps also get dirty, so just one more thing to wash!

DITCH · Feb 24th, 2003, 04:23 PM

I wouldn't call them ineffective. True, there's not much car behind the rear wheels of a MINI, so you can't get such a small area reaaaaly dirty, but MINI mudflaps do protect motorists behind you from mud and stuff.
