...in the silver MC? on 4/4/06 at 7am at the corner of 110th and Nall?

(Note: I don't know if anyone else is interested in playing or not, but I was going to keep a log of all the MINIs I see. Mebbe one of them is you! If so, I hope you waved back!)

Ooohh!! Great idea. Maybe we could have a forum for "spotted". I think that is an awesome idea. You will be hard pressed to spot me :).

Not me. I have it from reliable witnesses that you can see me from a mile away.

Boo yeah!

Hey - was that you in that Rover with the front tag that said "Land Rover"
or something similar?

That was "I" riding shotgun. I was pointing at your MINI to make sure that my wife saw your quarter panel windows. Like I said, the kids thought it was the coolest MINI ever :).

BTW - Two thumbs up for the wheels.

If you see me, you'll know your mini is in trouble. Miss Jones has been in and out of the Baron hospital at least 5 times in the last month and. The traction control keeps freaking out, the check engine light keeps coming on, and today to top it all off, the airbags have stopped working.

As long as the top goes down, I'll be ok. Nothing beats these nice spring days for open sky motoring.

I saw my "twin" on the plaza last Saturday - minus the white bonnet stripes and not an S - so more like a fraternal twin.

It wasn't me....is it possible we could actually be "triplets?" Surely Baron hasn't sold more than two red convertibles. :o
