Kansas City MINI Enthusiasts

Tom and I will be enroute to 12th and Genessee at 11:00. We should get there before noon. Meet there. Bring a camera. No word from Paul but hopefully he will see this and join us with his camera. I'm bringing mine just in case. Lets have fun. Lunch at wendys there wouldn't be bad either. 913-306-342...

Ok. 12th and gennessee by noon. 9133063424

Ok no word from walnuts. Tom and I will be driving Yoshi and Oliver down to the West Bottoms tomorrow early before noon probably. Stephanie if you want to bring Artemis and BumbleBee do so. Anyone else that wants to join us meet down there as well. I think we should find an area to rendezvous in so ...

I would bring my classic if her turn signals weren't broken. :( What time are you thinking this weekend? I've got something going on at 2:30 but I'm free the rest of the day. Email Paul (walnuts) and ask him. Also if you wanna bring BumbleBee then we may need to find someone with a blue R53 Cooper ...

Ok I think we are planning this for this weekend. I talked with Paul and I think that is what he wnats to do weather permitting. I'd love to get a few more Mini's involved. Maybe some classic ones or more R56 ones so Artemis doesn't feel out of place.

Believe me I asked him. He has a nice studio and doesn't want to have a roommate while he is in school. Thinks it is a distraction. I'd agree for him plus I'm graduating and applying for grad school but I understand his reasoning.

Roommate is moving out at end of semester and need someone to replace him. Rent is $340 plus utilities. Apt is within walking distance to campus and depending on the weather I have been known to give my roommate a ride to campus if need be. Apt is small but nice. 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. The smaller r...

That would cool. I'd be down for that.

I'm down for that. That would be fun. Another would be hiding the cars among other mini coopers at Baron like in the original movie.

Lined up along the curb is what I was thinking too. Walnuts suggested the West Bottoms area of KC

Should we set it up like they did in the movie? I want at least one picture where they are parked in a line. Red White Blue Or the French way lol Blue White Red though that makes no sense. We could do it the Italian way but we would have to forgo blue for Green but the idea is that the cars were Bri...

No worries. It will look good I think.

Well how bout sometime this week or this coming weekend weather permitting? Stephanie, would you be able to pop the roof rack off for it? Though it might be interesting to leave it on the car since u also have the stickers all over and all.

So where would walnuts and Counterfit_Mini like to do these photos? West bottoms is a great place for photos, I know of a few different locations depending on peoples locations :D Sounds like fun. I'm in Lawrence. Not sure where Counterfit_Mini is but hopefully she is available. Would to do this be...

The coupes look good. The Roadster's too. I just got my Mini with it at 42,000 miles. DOn't plan on getting a new car until this one gets close to 100,000 miles (I.E. about the time the supercharger needs to be serviced, lol) I may consider a coupe but by then these all will be used cars. Dude I ha...

We should get the red and blue and white minis out in front of grinders and photograph em

Doesn't matter. I think Artemis would be perfect. In fact I was hoping you were going to respond for that very reason, lol. I think we need to get these three together soon and take some pictures, we can park em in places that would make it look like they were racing through and I can do some nice b...

Now we just need a Blue one.

Suddenly lately have gotten the urge to watch the Italian Job. So much so in fact that I downloaded the original one. Love it. I really wanna get a red mini and a blue one together and do a goofy Italian job photo shoot thing, lol.

Just keep washing the car. Sometimes as much as once a week if you really want it clean. Don't use the brush at the self-use car washes. They just trap the dirt from previous users and scratch your paint. (Also, don't use the scratch-o-matics.) Your gonna have to wash the car yourself and spend a d...

I spent 8 dollars at the car wash the other day (spray wash not automated of course) and the car is dirty again. Any advice on how to keep it from getting dirty short of keeping it in the garage permanently?

Did Turner Gill have a Mini?

Any Mini owners that go to KU? So far I have just counted two. Me and Tom (ksminiman). Will the other Jayhawk and former Jayhawk Mini owners please rise and be heard

ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!
