A guy in Castlebar is around in '97 D blue cooper the last few months.
Also up here is a girl driving the "River Rock" mini, '96 green cooper.
Both were for sale a while back but i still see the '97 cooper around.
HIT is an old Leitrim reg.
]
The last old Mayo reg ended with "IS", would be a novelty to have a couple of minis with HIT and MIS registrations!

This car has been around the Golden Island SC on & off for the last while, I left an IMOC card on last week, the owner must think we are stalking them
Cheers

Does anyone know who owns this pink number
If it isn’t broke then it’s not a Mini

Saw a navy mini on the M50 heading northbound about 9pm this evening. Only caught a glimpse of the back and side, but not the front.

I always find that when I'm driving any of the minis I never see other ones!

Don't know if this really should be in the "seen a mini" section as i didn't see in in the flesh, but in the background of a for sale ad for another car.
It's a green clubby estate on sportspack alloys in Dublin. see link below, 3rd pic.

Maby the moderators (or FlyingFinn, as he started the topic) can make a call on wheather this kind of mini spotting is relevant or allowed in this topic in the future.

Maybe have a 'minis in the media' thread? All publications/clips/ads/movies/etc references could go into it?

why shouldn't it be here!
you spotted it, albeit in an ad but you spotted it all the same
we've had minis spotted in media here before whether it's in a movie or tv series or on a poster,
I think the OP mean't it to be that way, simple as spotted a mini
btw, does anybody on here own that particular mini?

spotted a black mini at a Petrol station in Swords today while I was buying my mini, what are the chances? he was an IMOC member, didn't ask his name was distracted
said he would be at Mosney, putting it up for sale.

Was at a music festival launch about 2 months ago, in Dublin. Only took the photo off the camera today. It looks like a South African clubby? The inside was in fairly bad condition. It actually looked like it was being restored.
