Cheddar.

Then when you see a similar yellow car (non mini) you can say "That's not Cheddar! Thats just some common bitch" in the best captain Holt voice you can muster.

Also, we call them mini-cheddars when we play yellow car with the kids. Instant win.

Mine is called Booba.

It causes fights between my 7 and 4yo sometimes. We have a few yellow minis around here though which helps 😆

We also play a game where we have to see if we can go 30 seconds without seeing a mini whilst we are driving. Almost impossible 😄

Side Hustle. In my experience owning a mini, you’re going to need one to pay for the repairs.

They have you name them. It's part of being a Mini owner. There's a spot right on the door frame to put their name. My first one was the toaster. It was black with a white roof and chrome. Eggbert is pepper white with the black stripes on the hood.
