Hi, I was spotted!

Post by SirTravis »

Hello everyone! I went to Liberty Memorial yesterday and saw a very nice Blue Mini Coop with white and red stripes, a bike rack, and covered with stickers. Naturally I parked next to it and went for a stroll. When I returned I found a nice card that invited me here, but with no name! :( So I am here to thank the Union Jack inspired Blue Mini Coop couple and to join up and see what this is all about! Glad to be here! :D

That was me!! :) Sorry I forgot to write my name on the card. (I just sent you a PM before I saw this post. LOL sorry) I took some pictures of our Mini's next to each other because I don't think I've ever had another Mini owner randomly park next to me. I checked out your Mini. Looks awesome :)

YAY! Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Also, thanks for snapping a picture Stephanie. I always make a point to park next to another MINI if I see one. :D

Awesome! :) I noticed that you had a Kansas City Art Institute sticker on your car but your plates are from a different state (Louisiana? maybe. Can't remember). So I figured you might be new and found a club card in my bag and left it for you :) BTW, I couldn't help but look at your cars huge mud flaps! :shock:

That yellow and black hard top would look nice next to my lime green and black. Yellow was my second chose for stripes.

New member here too. I credit Tom (ksminiman) for getting me connected with this group and for convincing me to buy a Mini Cooper. Just bought an awesome Mini Cooper S.
