I saw the 007 Mellow Yellow Mini on NB 71 by 150. It still has the 007 decals on it from the March release party.

I've lived in Gardner for about 9 months now and never seen a Mini here, and then today I see two!

Main St. @ Elm at 12:30pm: Gold MC, no stripes

Moonlight road @ the Embarq store, 12:40pm: met the nice owner of a '07 Orange MCC and told her about this club/forum.

Still looking to spot ylwjkt's Mini

Today at the Legends, PW MCc in the Time Warner "Home to the Future" exhibit. They had red velvet ropes around the car and a sign leaning against it.

Tonight in Mission Hills near the Kansas City Country Club, Hot Orange MCc. Great night to watch fireworks!!

I cruised thru the Baron lot on Sat morning and saw the Oasis Tan car in the lot with no plates - traded or sold?

Did you notice Ruska? She's been there on her second 10+ day vacation in the past month.

Minidave · Post by **Minidave** » Mon Jul 02, 2007 1:30 pm

Well, there were a lot of MINI's in the parking lot, sometimes it's hard to tell the customers from the trade-ins from the used cars...........long answer, no. But she may have been parked over in the service area. I was only cruising thru the used car lot area.

What's the matter with poor Ruska?

And I saw two MINI's today, a silver one on K-10, westbound - I flashed my lites but I couldn't tell if I got a wave or not, BUT....

A little later on 87th st near Antioch, a CR and the driver waved! YAY!
Finally a response!

I think it must have to do with being in town vs on the hiway. It's hard to get a glimpse in heavy hiway traffic...... and I'm mostly on the hiway.

Minidave · Post by **Minidave** » Mon Jul 02, 2007 6:06 pm

Wow! three more MINI's on the way home tonight, and all three waved!

The usual Blue/white

A Silver/black and

A black cabrio

all going west on K-10 tonight a little after 4 pm..............

Tuesday, July 3 around 4pm, followed a Green MC with KS plate MOUSE from 435 west onto 35 south where I promptly passed her, waved (she didn't see me

), and went on my way.

July 4 around 3:30pm in Gardner, saw a Silver MC(S?) parked at the aquatic center. Then saw a dark Blue MC(S?) with white bonnet stripes heading west along Main St. Flashed my headlights (I was test driving an Oxygen Blue w/ black roof and bonnet stripes) but he didn't see me I guess.

I really need to pay attention to whether it's an MC or MCS

HB/W MCS parked on Main St (?) in Parkville July 4th around
10 AM - during the parade. I panned the crowd anxiously hoping
to find Marlow Main, but to no avail. I was in the counterfeit, so you
may not have recognized me.

We need to participate in that parade next year. The Miata club had
quite a showing. Surely we can out-do them.

Marlow Main · Post by **Marlow Main** » Thu Jul 05, 2007 7:24 pm

Hello ylwjkt,

I was sitting in the row of chairs on Main St, behind my sister's Caliber.
The Scions all looked great, I wondered if one of them was you.

I agree, we need to be in the PV arade next year. Parkville always
has a nice 4th. I can look into getting us all in if anyone is interested.

Marlow

I got a nod from a silk green Cooper on westbound 435 around 7:30 this morning.

ylwjkt · Post by **ylwjkt** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 8:39 am

CR/B MC at the stop light on Quivira at 87th around 4 PM on Friday.

I also got third-hand reports from family members of a CR/B with temp
tag now residing in Gardner. That's 5 in the past month.

I spoke to the owners of a white 1978 classic Leyland Mini with a Union Jack roof at the Spring Hill Sonic cruise night last night. I gave them a club card and and they are planning on joining us on the 19th.

Club Cards? There's a good idea, we should all carry some for that odd chance encounter.........let me know how I can get some...........

I saw a Blue Cabrio about 5 pm Saturday at the McD's in Desoto

I won't be able to make it to the July meeting. Do you think I could get some at the August meeting?

oh-behave · Post by **oh-behave** » Tue Jul 10, 2007 5:25 pm

I live in Downtown Parkville and I see that HB often, there is also the CR that belongs to the guy that owns the Photo studio down there and there is a B/B S that is a recent acquisition for a couple that live in the WildWood West sub-division. oh and then there is us.... the lulu's mini PW/PW Girl decals on the side, I eventually quit waving cause no one seemed to notice

.

My recent siting is of a CR MCs rolling into Clinton MO, on our way to go comping. it had a single pipe coming out of that center cutout, I don't think they were running a muffler.... it sounded awesome! we did exchange waves. If I wasn't so polite in traffic I could have played with them for a while, wouldn't have been able to keep up though.

if anyone sees a Pearl white Audi Urs4 around the north land, lend a wave, you'll get one back.

Cheers,

Orien

CR/W MC at the CVS 87 and Lackman yesterday afternoon. Lynn- was that you?

Then as I was leaving, HB/W MCS with custom bonnet and boot stripes
WB on 87 St. I think it was HB - I'm not too good at identifying all the new blues yet.

Today I spied a HB/B MCS (?) with temp tag on 87 at the Quivira stop light. Congrats on your new addition.

I saw Petek's mini at his house today in Raymore.

Mini looks good. I thought it was for sale for a minute. It was parked in the yard under a tree. I stopped and looked at it.

ylwjkt · Post by **ylwjkt** » Sun Jul 15, 2007 1:46 pm

CR/CR MC Saturday 133 and Metcalf. Later spied a CR/W and CR/B
in my travels - and even a SG/W on Center St in Gardner. Not
one wave.

I was following the Hotwheels counterfeit. One of the CR was following a counterfeit as well. What a strange coincidence. What a stranger coincidence the counterfeits waved to each other.

Yep, my MINI and under a tree is a nice shady place to park.

I was showing half of the duplex to a perspective new renter. Anyone looking for a place to rent, send me an email.

If you see a black-on-black MCS with South Carolina tags it's me. Just bought it off my dad and absolutely love it! I'm usually around Downtown KC, Overland Park/Olathe, and North KC (girlfriend). Be careful, I'll wave!

sliboa · Post by **sliboa** » Sun Jul 15, 2007 9:46 pm

I saw a BRG/W MC, in the parking lot of the Hyvee on Rice road off of 291 in Lee's Summit, tonight around 9.

JohnBLZ · Post by **JohnBLZ** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 8:31 am

Saw a PW/B MC going North on Renner yesterday...gave a honk and a wave but got a blank stare in return

Also saw a very nice DS MC off 51st St in Westwood...looked like a great addition to the house!
