North East Minis

[wheyaye2]

I've noticed there doesn't seem to be a lot of MINI drivers up here in the North East - Newcastle, Sunderland, Durham area that post on Mini2?
Unless I've just missed them!

So come on, own up if you're from up here - or are we a rare breed?

One here!

I see loads of MINI's around. 90% of them miserable commuters though...

Hullo

First post on here from a short-term lurker! Just upgraded from a R53 Cooper to a R56 Cooper S! Hopefully getting it second week in March, but haven't heard anything for a while.

I can normally be found zipping between Ponteland and the city, unless i'm just out driving for the fun of it, in which case i'm probably on the way up towards Jedburgh - I never get bored of that road

I've been motoring round Durham and Sunderland in my Cooper for over a year now. Y'all can spot my mini easily cos i've got union jack exterior bits . Look out for me!!!

You know I'm ere Drew. Just found this thread whilst lookin to see if anyone is headin down to mini's vs beetles....

You can normally see me zipping up the A19 and down between Sunderland and Peterlee or causing havoc in Sunderland

easily identifyable in that how many V.Red mini's do you see and my M2 stickers give it away too.

we'll ave to sort out another local meet...

Another NE MINI here, CR/W R56 Coop spotted anywhere between Newcastle/Quayside/Coast sort of way

Might have spied Zicoal tonight on the central motorway, would have waved but I was in a white van It was a BRG/W Coop with plate starting R7 and an M2 sticker, not sure if it was you?

[ScottyBoy]

if there is enough Northerners own up hear is there going to be something maybe organised from this would be good if there was! something more close to home!

Right colour but wrong reg! Still got my original plates starting ND53. I don't know whether I'm on a bad run but I haven't seen any other cars with M2 stickers around.

So close, but yet so far from spotting you!
