Ouch!

 

Do parked MINIs count towards MINI spottings? 'Cause I saw a crap ton while looking for a parking spot tonight. Probably two-thirds of them were Chili Red and half of them had Michigan plates.

I don't remember seeing so many on previous parking outings...

I did see one while in motion--PS/B MC heading east on Peterson by Rosehill Cemetery. No glances my way even when I was right next to her. Very depressing.

 

Spotted a couple of MINIs yesterday near Diehl Rd in Naperville. Was out visiting a client. I saw a CR/B MCC (top-down) near Famous Dave's. then a PW/PW MCS? on Diehl Rd/Winfield Rd. I was making my way to 88 to go back to work.

 

PH/B "NOT ME" in Inverness S. Ela and f
Freeman @ 13:22. I'm riding shotgun in the aircraft carrier so no wave.

 

Yesterday on 41 heading north:
BRG/W MCS- i was tailing you and beeped as you went into Knauz. you were with a lady passenger. no wave, no beep. boooooo!

Today:
CR/W MCS headed west on 176 and St. Mary's Rd.
Thanks for the hearty, enthusiastic wave!!! Made my day!

i'm still waiting to be spotted...maybe no one can see me with my dirty black wheels?!

 

IB/B MCS with blacked out everything including black wheels on
lake st around 10:30am in hanover park by O'Hare/Elgin.

 

JB/B parked in a garage on Hough St. in Barrington this afternoon.

 

hey kenchan, that was me hyper blue though

i was on my way to elgin to do an oil change

 

Pan, you were spotted on your way home by my buddy. He was in a ford F350 towing a boat.

 

On Saturday?

Man I'm everywhere

 

Spotted a AB/AB R56 on Old Post rd. in Oswego around 11.30a purchased from Jacobs.

Was tailing (safely I must add ) behind him but wasn't able to get his attention.

 

horray for safe tailing! boooo for giant trucks with their lights and inferiority complexes shining in your mirrors!

Ords: did you get your name from the O'Hare airport code?!

The airport i fly into in Maui is OGG and i like to think it stands for "original gangsta gangsta".

I need to stop typing out loud...

 

I know all to the dangers of being ridden from behind. (please no comments.. )

Zag, yes that's where the name came from, it's also my nickname at work, given what I do. (which isn't much actually)

 

huh, on a sunny day IB kinda looks like HB, huh?
oil change in Elgin?

 

Spotted a CR/B MCS at the Niles Buffalo Wild Wings. I parked right in front of you so they could chat with one another. Here's a pic:

 

^^ damn those R56's are HUGE.

 

Spotted this past Wednesday heading west on I88 near Highland ave. @ 4:43 a JB/B MC with MB Financial stickers all over the vehicle. No wave, the driver was too focused on driving.

 

Ords -

That MB bank car you saw was loaned out to customers.... They are not 'real' drivers.... Just an easy way to test drive.

I spotted a MINI when I was actually DRIVING my MINI!!!

12:15 ish A PS MC on 47. I blinked the high beams and she did too.

 

I was doing it at my cousins house.


Did the car you saw look like this?

 

Thanks! As I said, he seemed to be "focused" on driving and not enjoying!

 

yah, i especially remember the black headlight rings and the offset
license plate. and the black wheels, ofcourse.
