Get it all the time from my rugby team.. "Are you sad that you haven't got a heater?" "Don't you wish you could go fast?" Whats the top speed?" I'll give you a fiver for it"..
I just laugh it off & hit 'em hard in training..


Buts its always funny to see how quickly they change tunes when they want a lift into town because they've been drinking!

Owning a Mini isn't about how fast you get there, but how much fun you have getting there.

[cooperdan]

Nope, It doesnt even slighty effect me, I just smirk and go ok..sure..

And all i know is im driving around in car that attracts more attention than any other modern car and thats a feeling like no other,

temp security guard at work came up to me, first thing he said was "your cars sh*t mate for that much money you could have got a Subaru" ....he drove a beat down civic with a dodgy sounding exhaust....

nothing has to be said really does it?

my minis got a bit of rust on it but its got miles more character than most cars

[Ethel]

Just ask "have you ever had a Mini?"
If they reply no, follow up with "I guess you don't like girls either, then?"

What goes around comes around I'd say...

For the last year I've been getting stick about how crap my car is etc. But now all my mates cars are failing their MOTs and mine passed first time!

Everyone at my work apart from one bloke says that minis are just **** rust buckets.
But yet everytime I drive mine I have a massive smile on my face, my girlfriend and her family love it.
They way I see it is some people like modern comfort cars that give you no sense of driving at all and then theres people like us, that love maintaining our cars and prefer the good old fashioned cars that you can feel every but of the road!

[gazza_sidewalk]

get stick from my friends all the time, but deep down i now they love it,

My work mate had a VXR Corsa D, and my boss has a 1953 chevy pick up which he's restored, and they both try to win me up about the mini, but the matey with the Corsa had to put about 3 gearboxes in his, and my boss had to completely restore his Chevy, and has since had to be put another engine and gearbox in it, as they've both gone. So all I say is, how much has yours broken, and how much did it cost you?

[Stuart92]

No. They're just jealous because they drive normal-people cars.

[Ryang556]

Haha, just jealousy because they can't make their euro sh*tboxes as fun as a mini

[minicity1275]

I always say "ever driven a mini" they say no and then i say "well you dont know what your missing"

[Ryang556]

This is my point! 90% of people who say this have never driven or even been in a mini, just don't understand
