Saw a very clean 2011 dark blue/blk Cooper in the parking lot as Lee and I were driving back from getting Lee's MINI out of the bodyshop, so we parked right next to it. Gave the owners a PSMINI card and talked briefly with them.  There were surprised to see two almost identical MINI's.

While talking with them a Countryman pulled into the space across from us (same isle/lane) and we waved and smiled.  He scowled and walked away not saying a word or even a wave!  Looked like a dark brown Countryman with a not very friendly driver.

 
I wish there was a local MINI Dealership, like our Honda, Subaru, Mazada and VW.

Well 50/50 isn't to bad
If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

LOL  What amazed all of us was that the guy saw us and turned away!, and we were not even waving a political banner!

I so appreciate your positive perspective John. LOL

Sorry for the negative feedback from that guy in the Countryman Stephen. Maybe he just had a bad day?

I think some folks who drive brown MINI's and don't waive may be hiding another color under the protective layer provided by mother nature.

The question is, "When you turn on your car does it return the favor?"
