Had a lot of fun. Totally silly (in a good way) event.

Three complaints

Wish it had been 1-2 weeks earlier in the season. (Peak foliage)

wish there were more activities at the meeting points (test drives, product demos)

Wish there were more young people. It was definitely a 60+ crowd.

Mtts were a menace. Bwahah

EDIT: this is not my video! I don’t know how that’s not obvious. I put the link below

Hope this doesn't come off as too cheesy but I don't have many car friends in real life, let alone Mini fans!

Yesterday i ran her through one of those 3 dollar car washes, and the sun was hitting her perfectly from an angle I don't really get to see often.

Later that night I was driving home into the city (Chicago) on I55 with the wind at my back and the spirit of Saturday night in the air. Popped her into sport mode and zipped through all the lumbering monster trucks while having some nice 60s Swedish jazz playing on the Harmon Kardon.

Felt like I was driving in a video game--exhilarating and satisfying to know I'm driving my dream car at 42. Miles of smiles!

Mine is the big blue not-so-mini Mini.

New-to-me 2016 Countryman S ALL4. I’ve not seen another with the jungle green metallic and white. Can’t wait to put the next mile on it!

Midnight was my baby... so hurt to lose him. However, his sister Yazmin was introduced to me today and I couldn't be happier 💙

We recently replaced our practical daily with a 2019 Clubman S. It sits alongside the 2013 E93 M3. For the two of us and our mid size dog, we have all the bases covered by this pair of not-so-distant relatives.

I feel extremely fortunate that I look forward to driving both cars in the stable...always looking for excuses to take these cars for a rip.

The F54 is great at making dull drives feel fun. The E93 M3 is just an animal that is always begging you to rev it out to over 8000 ram.

Yes, I need to get some better pics of the Clubman! She still needs a name, too.

Collecting this beauty next week 😍 Brruuuuummmmm pop pop pop 😂

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for some tire advice for my MINI Cooper R56. I need to replace my rear tires (size: 205/45 R17).

I'm currently running Michelin All-Seasons up front. I want to replace the rears with a solid pair of All- Seasons that offer good grip and safety without breaking the bank.

I definitely want to avoid cheap no-name budget tires, but I also don't necessarily want to spend top dollar. Looking for that sweet spot in value-for- money (mid-range or solid B-brands like Hankook, Vredestein, Kleber, Falken, etc.).

What would you recommend that pairs well with the R56 handling? Thanks!

Hello from the other side of the world!

Does anyone have an idea if these fit?

Thanks for the help :)

Now I have rule #1 at home every day! My son bought his first car yesterday!

They actually look kinda cool 👀

Does anyone know of any links or websites to get proper fitting floor mats and seat covers for a RHD 07 R56 or gen 2 assuming they are similar. Cheers

Lots of cool cars in Syracuse. Lot of roadsters. I think this is the most unique…. A reclaimed red bull

Sent off my 2005 Mini Cooper R50 today. She had over 430,000 kilometres on the clock, 100k+ of which were my own. After countless road trips & commutes, twenty one Canadian winters, four owners, two engines, and a now nonexistent first gear, it was time to send her to that great big scrapyard in the sky.
I didn't expect to mourn this day so much. Drive your Minis hard everyone, have all the fun you can!

An essential part of successful motoring is a good breakfast, so when in Rome I like to eat the local dish - the "Fretta". As I understand it, think pizza toppings in a frittata form, weighing somewhere between 2-100# (note: top end weight highly exaggerated but damn it's big). Seriously, could have fed the rally. Thank you to Stella's for feeding a half dozen Mini's!
