today, i was driving home and i had a guy scream abuse at me for driving a mini, but the next set of lights a kid of about 5-6 was crossing the lights with his dad and he couldnt stop staring at the mini. i also got looks from two girls :D . So judged on this i reckon its worth every bit driving a mini. but what do u guys think?

When driving a Mini you may get one foolish person...but the next 100 people will smile and or wave. You may also get stuck in a car park with a couple of old dears telling you their life story in a 4 door Mini :lol:

I couldn't care less what people think of my Mini. I love it and that's all that counts. It's like with neon green high-heels - a lot of people won't like them but that ain't gonna stop me from wearing them :lol:

I'd be lucky to stand up in heels, let alone try and drive in them. Besides I've never seen Neon Greens in a 11 Wide male fitting.

You gte an odd idiot that are jealous of your wheels....all 10inches of them :P

If you worry about what people are gonna think then you are going to live a sad life.

The best thing I love is seeing peoples expressions when they go to pull into what they think is an empty car space when theres actually a Mini there...the look is priceless.

Ive had guys at work tell me to put an granny flag (1 of those tall flourescent orange ones) on the top so they know where I am parked :wink: :wink:

Fu@K YEH mini's are great :D. I live in a retirement area and get heaps of waves from the oldies and they would probably would want one if they could get in or put up with the ride.
