I concur (about the dirty MINI and keeping the car clean). You might've seen me. I was sitting in the green xB parked next to the white xB in the back of the parking lot. There might've been a purple xB parked next to the white one too.

Saw a black MCS on the side of the road eastbound 470 between blue ridge and raytown road, of course i was headed west so i turned around at blue ridge to see if they needed help, knocked on the window and scared the lady half to death she was on the phone with help on the way but i noticed a few things while peeking into the ladys mini it had 16k miles and she was out of gas

so i went on my way but she did say i was very sweet for stopping

Tonight, 6:30ish, I-35 North between Pleasant Valley and Liberty, we had a multi-MINI sighting. A black MCS with double silver stripes (really sharp!!) passed us (don't give me any grief, John was driving!

) and then we both passed MINI-ZU, LY MC with checkerboard mirror caps. Three MINIs all in a row and we all got off at the same exit. Talk about turning heads in Liberty!

What a nice thing you did for a fellow MINI. I wonder if that is one of the two black MINIs that lives in my corner of LS? Anyway, if I ever see you on the side of 470, I promise to stop!

I saw a Chili Red with a white roof and black bonnet stripes going northbound on 71 and a Dark Gray on with a black roof going northbound on 71. I waved at the Chili.

I am sure all speed limits were being obeyed that day. Oh
wait, Richard was driving. He is so used to driving the xB that
when he gets in the MINI he doesn't realize that the gas pedal
works that well.

I saw Petek's MINI again at Devry. At least I think it was his. It looked exactly like it.

I saw it yesterday when I was going to work.

My MINI was at DeVry? What the heck is it doing there?

Oh, that's right... I work at DeVry University.

DS MCS ( I think it was DS - hard to tell in these mucky times)
NB on I-35 from Olathe around 10:30 this morning. Driven by a very serious man that was concentrating on the road. I paced him in the next lane till I made him look and wave.

DS MCSc black top in the Cheeseburger in Paradise-Leawood parking lot tonight around 8:30, MO plates. Great to see a convertible out in this muck!

Next door, same area, around 5, blue MCS with Union Jack roof in the CVS parking lot. Maybe qwertmonkey?

Oh...and a CR MCS with a Union Jack roof, same parking lot. Was there some unofficial MINI gathering in Leawood tonight?

I saw a dark silver MCS with black bonnet stripes going northbound on 435. He got off at raytown road.

I drove next to a blue mini last night on Johnson drive heading toward I-35 at about 7:00pm. Couldn't see the front for further description, but they waved!

I saw a Mini yesterday (I think). I think it was a dark silver color. Don't really remember. I think she was driving down 58. The only thing I really do remember was that I waved at her and she looked at me like I was crazy. LOL.

I've had my MINI for a little over a month and I've been waving to almost every MINI driver I see and most just give me a weird look or ignore me. I did get a wave back while I was up in Wisconsin visiting my parents over Christmas.

Illini82 · Post by **Illini82** » Sun Jan 21, 2007 4:30 pm

I've gotten mixed results with waving. Most MINIs wave back, but you're right, there are some that look at me like i'm crazy. So if you see a blonde girl in a green mini waving excitedly...that would be me.

Counterfit_Mini · Post by **Counterfit_Mini** » Sun Jan 21, 2007 9:24 pm

She might've looked at me strange too because I was in an xB....

EB/W parked in a driveway at 70th Terr & Antioch, east side. Poor MINI looked like it was sliding down the driveway, parked on a snow covered hill. I hope it didn't slide, but it sure was parked all wanky.

That was me, and it's Electric Blue, LOL. I thought that was you but I am not used to seeing you on 150, so I didn't realize it was you until it was too late to wave. *waving now*

Illini82 · Post by **Illini82** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 2:51 pm

LY/W on 39th and state line today around 1:45. I waved...but I don't think she saw...or didn't recognize my mini as a mini because it's so dirty.
