you have the "Track your MINI" in a separate browser and click refresh periodically through the day.

you already know what MINI you're getting but you go through the "Build your own MINI" at least once a day.

you cut out all the MINI pictures from the brochure and lined you room, cubical or office with them.

you use the MINI scale models to show your friends how much room is in the MINI.

your know more about your MINI salesperson's life than most of your friends.

you've read the entire "Book of Motoring" more than once.

you have started using British terms like "Bonnet" and "Boot" but you're not British. (need a British equivalent here!)

you know the name of the ship you MINI is being transported on, when it left port and how to track the ship.

you know about rumors and changes about the MINI before your dealer does.

you get excited by paying MSRP.

IT’S A SAD EXISTANCE WE LIVE IS’NT IT

...MINI2 is your homepage!

...you change your MINI desktop background every few days

...read every publication that had a review on the MINI so far and still searching for more

...can't post more in this thread because it will take up time for you to read other posts in the forum

You've still got the MINI air freshener in the car, even though the smell went months ago.

I too have these same symptoms of "MINIMANIA".
My wife; who is a mental health professional maintains, that
I am obsessive-compulsive!!
This used to bother me but I've accepted it & am at peace with myself now. Well, things will more peacefull for all concerned when my MINI arrives!

Do not get me wrong; my wife likes the MINI & is very supportive. She has driven the car on test drives as well.

My co-workers seem to suffer the most from my "disorder".
I think they will understand when they drive the car!!!

Your friends heighten your anxiety by reminding you that your transport ship left South Hampton about the same time of year the Titanic did

[ELISEBOY]

hehe
but i say if your going to have an obsession in life could you think of any better??

[sdmidget]

Is there some kind of global iceberg tracking system out there?

[my BRG Cooper is due to be "born" on Friday -so it should be hitting the high seas soon too]

You check the forum at MINI2 at least twice a day.

You go to the local MINI showroom at all hours just to see. You stop by just to hangout and see what is in the show room and what is on the lot even if you ordred your car weeks ago.

Every one you know first greets you when you see them then asks you. "Have you gotten your car?" "When are you getting it."And last but not least." When you get it can i drive it?"

[lhasa]

You can recite the entire Car & Driver MINI cover story by heart.

You print out MINI articles and MINI2 members' posts to read in any room, throughout the day.

You still try to sell your MINI salesperson on you even though you've deposited $1000. Just in case.

[S2K&CooperS]

............when you print the options list from the MINIUSA website and highlight the ones you want XX months before the car even hits U.S. shores

............when you've test driven the new MINI (Cooper and Cooper S) 4 times since March 22

..........the fact that you actually know the launch date

............when friends from another car club are constantly asking you if your MINI has arrived yet

...........when you have the brochure and the screen saver on the computer at work

............when you stop by the dealer nearly every other day

.............when you log on to MINI2 every morning, afternoon, and evening

Arse. That'll be me then

You change your name to include the word MINI in it (doMINIc)

Every time you go in the newsagents, you check the magazines for something vaguely associated with MINI's.

Or you do what I do and re-read the same articles over and over just in case you missed something.

Yes Gromit; I will let them drive the car.
By driving the car they will see what a Mini is
really about.
After they drive it they will (hopefully) understand my (our)obession
