I'm doing a project, and I'm trying to establish what age groups
are interested in Mini's.
You don't have to own one or be doing up a Mini,
you just like Minis and one day might own one.

I have loved minis from when I was a child, I am now 21. My dad loves minis and so did his dad. My nana loves minis to and so does my sister, you can't put an age group on mini lovers because everyone loves them

i'm the only mini-obsessant in my family :( , owned mine since i was 17. But i grew up in a ht monaro and a xt-gt so i can see the problem, they just don't like small cars :lol: !

And for the record: i had to pick the 25-40 option....................but closer to 25 than 40 thanks :lol: !

I think it all started when I was about 8 years old? Always loved them - got me one when I was 17 - now I'm almost 25 and never realy looked at any other cars (to own instead of) :)

I'm 23. Loved minis since I was very young. Bought my mini in 2003. Anyone who knows me knows I will never part with it.

Forum polls on age are very swayed by the fact that many older people don't use forums as much as the younger people.

It would be interesting to get these kind of facts from the car clubs and compare to the results on here.
