Question Minis in SF Proper?

Roll call for Minis that live in the city limits of SF. How many of us exist?

I have a pure silver and black MC w/black bonnet stripes.

There are quite a few! Surprised that there have not been more responses to your post.

I live in the Inner Richmond and there are at least 6 MINIs
within a mile radius of my house. At least 6 that I know of.

There are at least 2 or 3 other MINIs from SF that attend
the local MINI meets posted here. Maybe more?!

silent coopers

it is strange. i think the SF coopers are a silent minority on mini2.com

there are 3 red/white coopers in potrero hill near me, there seems to be an indi blue/white S that lives nearby but I am not sure where.

what colors are the coopers near you?

cheers,

I work in SF 2 days a week, I think that counts. I know "Sister Betty Does" has a Blue Cooper. (www.sisterbetty.org) but is currenly on his cross/country trip. Quite a travelog on his website as well.

Also, my buddy Randy has a Bumble-Bee MCS. (Black, top, yellow body). He's also in SF.

There are at least 3 that I've regularly seen in the Pacific Heights neighborhood. I hope to add another by next month.

There are more MINIs in SF than you can shake a stick at!!

About a week ago I passed 3 Velvet Red and 2 Silk
Green Coopers just going over the hill on Masonic!!
So much for unpopular colors.

Waving & honking at oncoming MINIs is becoming a futile
cause. So many MINIs & most people just stare back.

I work at 2nd & Harrison. In the Parking Lot there, I now see a Silver Cooper with the QUIZNO's Sub banner all over it. Not sure if they do deliveries with that car, but it looks a bit - cheesy? (Bad pun)

Silver Black

How about 2 blocks south of the border?

I'm in Daly City and see more H2's than MINIs while driving during the week. Going to the old Embarcadero Farmer's market was like attending a MINI rally for us.

I'm new to the area, and I've just taken receipt of a LY/B MCS from MINI SF. I'm mostly in the east bay area around Berkeley, and go up and down 80 and 580 all the time. Haven't seen one on the road there. Saw a LY one day on 80, but that's about it.
