I was just wondering what sort of ages everyone here is.

It'll be interesting to see what market BMW's managing to hit with their ad campaigns etc.

btw. I'm 24

If anyone can spot the (deliberate... ahem) mistakes in my poll then they get a smartie.

I am also a member of the MINI 24 club!

40+ is your break-out!
Life begins at 40, not ENDS!
And, how can you be 20-25 AND 25-30, etc?

matt_s · Feb 26th, 2003, 06:00 PM

I am a mere nipper at 22. Although my mini is probably still in bits

Roll on april!

oh - can I have a smartie for noticing that the poll age categories crossover? I know I am not the first but there's a lot of smarties in that there tube!

Bonjour · Feb 26th, 2003, 06:03 PM

Congratulations to capecod - your smartie is in the post!

Sorry but I only spotted the errors after I'd posted it. Moderators may feel free to correct them if they wish.

Based on your break down I fall into the "geezer patrol"...

46 - driving like I'm 18 (just with more money and a newer car!)

Paul,

Can you just post the age stats of subscribers? Like this pole, but add a 50 and 60+ catagories.

It would be interesting, and a service to your subscribers, to see the demographics of MINI Cooper buyers. Other than age, it would also be very interesting to see MINI vs. MCS, colors, options, where we live, etc. You could also give us the raw data and some of us could do analysis. You don't need to give us any data that connects to any individual. What do you think?

majormike · Feb 26th, 2003, 07:24 PM

Wow. 40+ huh. 58 for me.

Gas O · Feb 26th, 2003, 07:27 PM

Good poll. Based on the poll, it seems like the Mini transcends all age groups and appeals to everyone. Another reason why the Mini is the best car out there.

james4513 · Feb 26th, 2003, 07:28 PM

Oh yes, forgot to mention that in 56. I'll be there are a lot of us baby boomers who drove MG's in college buying MINI's now.

That's what the MINI Profiles and user profiles are all about.

The MINI Profile search page wont be live until we upgrade, but the memberlist and memberlist search are.

Ages is something I might keep to myself just now.

rnelsonee · Feb 26th, 2003, 08:07 PM

Wow, it looks about even so far. It's good to know you other 24 year olds are getting them... I guess I won't be the only one wondering how the heck I'm going to pay for the MINI I ordered (MCS, all packages, Nav, HK Stereo...)!

Well,
I'm not a mini owner, nor am I waiting for it to come, but I am an aspirational mini owner

I'll probably end up picking up a second hand thrashed one in a few years

I'm 18

I'm 21 1/2 now. I was 20 when I put in my order for the car - it was supposed to be a 21st birthday present to myself but it was 5 weeks late!!!

Chris Williams · Feb 27th, 2003, 11:44 AM

Another one to the growing ranks of 24 yo MINI owners...although I was 23 when I bought mine!
