today took the mini for a spin seeing as it was a nice day came passed my local petrol garage seen a yellow bini filling up, the guy was looking at me driving passed with a huge smile on his face ,didn't really think much of it so drove on, stopped to get a drink and a mars bar just down the road ,here's him pulling up be-hide me gets out and walking over so i say "alright how ya doing" , he knocks my mars bar out my hand and says "i hate it when other minis don't wave your ment to wave !! " at his point I'm holding back my temper and think a joke mite defuse this so say to him " uve got a bini mate there nowt compared to the classic mini " and i laugh.. then he squares up to me shouting what you say about my car !! i couldn't believe what was going on ,so calmly said get out my face or ill do something i don't want to ,so he walks off back to his car shout "call yourself a real mini owner HA " and drives off

the old lady in the shop seen it all and give me 3 free mars bars for being brave and not losing my temper

so i ask you do you wave to new minis? should i have waved?

[Jammy]

I say no and I'll leave it at that.

Oh, and must add... 'Here we go again...'

[TNT]

hell no! bini's should wave at 3-series

[Natalie]

I'd get arm ache from the constant waving

[Wiggy]

No, because I don't look at them with any more relavence than any other car. Except Minis obviously.

[Jordie]

can i have a mars bar steve?

If I waved at Binis I may as well wave to Fords, buses, taxis, bikes, 4 x 4's even flash at the aeroplanes up there - in fact every vehicle on the planet. It's meaningless.

Good for you keeping your cool.

Every so often a Bini driver will wave at me, which is nice... But I dont make a habit of waving at them first... Used to, but most dont wave back!

[monkey]

i have to agree with the majority, as far as im concerned the only thing binis and minis have in common is the name and even that annoys the hell outta me!! they should all be sent to the motorway in the sky...

[Tru Playa]

yea i don't wave at bini's but well done for not hittin him dude i would have kicked 7 shades of s**t out of him lol.

Must have seen that thing bmw were doing a while back (flash/wave at mini's),

It’s a shame, as it appears some bmw drivers do what bmw tell them to do,
So why don't bmw do a guide to using your indicators and not to cut people up?

The only time I’ve waved at Bini's is after they have waved back, but seeing as most of the people own them as a fashion statement, that’s not very often.

[Roo]

I've never waved at binis. none of them look at you and those who do give you that stuck up look. Its really annoying having a bini garage down the road.
