Hey since getting my mini there seems to be a explosion of Bimi's in Ayr ! so far in Ayr there seems to be about 5 old mini's. One v-tech engined, one mint condition 90's cooper, an old mini city which my mate owns, one that i saw once at the police station and i found a new one :w00t: sadly driven by a 100 year old granny lol ! Just wondering how many originals lived near u !

I see loads in Southend - I drive to work along the seafront from Westcliff to Shoeburyness and probably see 4 or 5 minis every morning.

Most are '90's coopers and there's also a kitted mini which looks like it's got a centrally mounted drivers seat. :D

I also see the odd one driven by a really old person - you know for a fact they've owned it from new and it only does about 4 miles a week to the local shop and back. :ph34r:

There's plenty of BMW maxi's too. (or BMW 1/2 Series as I like to call them :w00t: )

I've no idea to be honest - what sort of car am I looking out for?

I've only just joined so I'm still getting to know who's local.

Only my 2 at the mo but that'll be down to just the one when I sell the other, I know of 3 in the town over and 1 of them is owned by a mate who just bought it 2 days ago. There's about 5 at my college though, mostly cooper lookers but theres a highly modded one thats sometimes in.

Was down in Southend over christmas and I must have seen about 10 minis while I was on the bus coming from the airport, about 5 of them were in Southend alone :w00t: was good seeing decent cars for a change.

Lots 11 that belong to my mates family, 1 or 2 that park nearby each day and loads on the roads :w00t: . Seems like theres been more since i got mine 2 years back but i think thats cause i look and listen out for them more than i used to.

i know of about 5 in my area, thats including Sunshines and mine, but everyday nearly i see a new mini or other mini's that come through the area, there's also a nice mk2 floating around..

people are allways telling me that they dont see many mini's around, but i see loads everyday, they just dont open their eyes

Makes sense now :w00t:

There's an awesome looking blue mini with 13" superlites and black arches that I see parked up near the casino in Westcliff sometimes.

Not seen the rear window though.
