I could drive for 3 hours in one of the mini's and not see one. I change to the "normal" car, and I see loads. Its like some vortex where only a certain amount can be in one area at a time!StanO'Toole wrote:Welcome to my world!smur89 wrote:spotting minis when not driving one is a bit disappointing!

Re: Seen a Mini?
Saw two lovely Minis in the Rathmines/Dartry area of Dublin last night.
A sportspack and a green leyland I think
If it was a black 88 austin Saloon outside Mcdonalds in Rathmines that would be me.

Re: Seen a Mini?
Met a Tahiti Blue 97D Cooper last night near Longford with I think a surfboard on the roof. I flashed him but he obviously didn't cop the red Mini on the trailer behind me.

Re: Seen a Mini?
Noticed a black with white roof & glass sunroof Mini being towed outbound through Donnybrook by an AA van yesterday (Friday) about 6pm.
I was going the opposite direction so didn't catch the reg number.
Unfortunate breakdown for somebody

Re: Seen a Mini?
93-ww navy Cooper just passed me as I walked out of on the run in Bray. I only found out last week that the lady who owns that 93 Mini was the owner of the burnt out Mini I found in Woodbrook, Bray so it doesn't look like she is leaving the Mini scene
