Wink flash me!

I always, always, always flash other mini drivers and am getting increasingly disapointed at the response! Ok so there are a few people that flash or wave or at least smile but some of the mini drivers I see are miserable! and look at you like your mad...

So come on folks lets all start as we mean to go on and at least aknowledge other drivers we are after all part of a sensational group of wicked car owners....

FLASH THOSE LIGHTS!

The problem is that I only seem to see MINIs when I'm driving the X5 - and if I start flashing my lights in that there could be aggro! Generally when out in the MINI - nothing! Actually that's not totally true - I did see a MINI the other day whilst driving the "right" car and I waved so hard I almost lost control of the car!

Anyway - consider yourself flashed!

theres a lot of miserable Mini drivers out there, The other day I was stuck in a jam and had the windows rolled down and cooper moved opposite to me. I said 'hello mate', and this young lad just looked at me and rolled his windows back up, and stood staring forward into space. We sat there for a few minutes ignoring our presence. Sad.

anyway since I don't have a polaroid camera with me ...consider yourself Flashed!

Howdy!

Can't wait to get my MINI!!

I live in Harrow as well - will give you a flash if I see you!

But obviously not whilst I'm in my Clio as you'll all be baffled!!!

BTW - where did you go to buy your MINI???
