Ventured up to the city today and then up the freeway and thru the hills to back home. Had a lot of fun on the Maccie to Strath Rd!! :wink:
1. Spotted white moke near the tunnels - gave him a toot as I overtook.
2. Tidy white Mini K (I think) in Stirling.
And thanks to the bloke in the Bini Cooper S In Pultney St - red with white roof and white bonnet stripes (so the big sister to mine) - saw him in my mirror, so slowed down so he could catch up along side of me at the lights - he looked straight ahead, no acknowledgement at all, never even looked sideways - tosser. Most of these Bini drivers just don't get it do they. :roll:
But there's a lady who drives a red/white roof Bini down here on the south coast who nearly falls out of her car waving when we see her. Thank you!

Oh - and an Audi R8 near Strath - awesome.
Peter.

The Strath Road is fun :)

Hi Matt - yeh, I was there around 3.
Used to travel the Strath Rd a lot - motorbikes, MGs etc - but was the 1st time in this mini - best car I've driven through there for sure (other than maybe the escort in Classic Adelaide, but that's a different ball game).
Must try and catch up some time mate.
Peter.

I have to agree with you 110%, went for a drive on Sunday down to Queenscliffe and back, spotted several BINI's and their stuck up drivers, N O T even 1, had the decency to acknowledge my little girl, every one had their nose up threir own A@$%, looking straight ahead and when I gave them a little Toot to acknowledge that they were driving a counterfeit car, they all innored me, so if thats a common problem with BINI drivers they deserve to pay $60,000 for a counterfeit replica piece of history.
