Do they get a flashing manual when they buy a fiesta.

yeh but why would you need a manual telling you to flash other cars the same as urs, us classic mini owners do it to say hello, itz commen sence u dunt need to be told

A mini is a mini , Flash one 2day.

You do realise the more you force this issue, the more negative responses you'll get don't you?

The Math is simple. One Bini driver on this whole thread will flash. You. The other 9 million (or whatever the number of Binis out there is, I can't be bothered to look) will be too busy doing their makeup, of won't know why the "old (enter colour here) car on the other side of the road" is flashing. We aren't going to get a lot of postive reponses here.........

If I see a Gold Bini around the Northampton area in my one working car though, I'll at least wave (as long as you're not too busy cutting me up on a roundabout! * )

ROFLMAO!

I can't believe it. I was right! Instructions by Ze farzerland on what to do in the event of meeting another Bini! Are all BMW drivers this stupid (Sorry, I already know the answer to this one!)

IMHO, the MINI is a nice car for those who have the money. However it is not by any stretch of the imagination a worthy successor to the mini, as in my experience they seem to have no "personality" (this seems to apply to the drivers as well, 'cept you herby ) look at the minis owned by people on this forum - theres not one alike. with the MINIs there are very few mods that can be done by the average person at home (although this applies to a lot of modern cars) performance stuff is limited to a John cooper works kit really, which costs a hell of lot. still, they cant be that bad a car because theres enough of them about!

the BINI - a dog poo car really - theres one on every corner!

What you have to remember is flashing head lights to tell another driver to come out in front of you is against the law.

[mini-mad uk]

Good idea. Neither side of this argument are ever going to change their mind so theres not much point going through the same routine every few days or so.

I'm sorry. I must have lost my sense of irony or sarcasm since I left Northampton 'because I have no idea what any of your responses have to do with anything I've actually written!?

Perhaps driving a BMW for too long has somehow made your sense of humour more "germanic"? Schwaebisch from the tone......
