    Welcome to 2019. Okay...I'll start.
    This one looks like one I took in 2018, but really....this one was taken in January.

    I'm on the wrong end of the continent where there is no snow. But this is a good time of year to see some snow pictures of your MINI too.

    No snow? I'd say that's the right end of the continent.

    I never park near other MINI’s unless I know them.

    It’s just weird, and I don’t want to get cards on my car inviting to join some silly MINI cult like LXM.

    A MINI (or any other small car for that matter) would provide greater room for doors to open and lessen the chance for door dings. So if parking away from all vehicles isn't an option and I see a MINI, I'm parking next to it. But then again I've never had an invite card put on my car either.

    When I drive the Helmet I try and park it far away and on an end spot. I don’t double park. About half the time when I come back to the car someone has parked some POS right next to it. Drives me up a wall!

    a long time ago, I parked my car on the far side of the parking lot with no one near me. When I got back, there was a POS car parked next to mine and he ran into my door while trying to park.

    I would have lost my sh!t.

    Then I would have been arrested because all tires would have been slashed, entire car keyed, and windows broken.

    A friend's boss has a show car, with many layers of candy paint, that gave the paint a deep rich look, it was a show winner. He took it to the store one nice day and parked far away from the store in an empty part of the parking lot.

    While he was still sitting in the car, another car pulled up next to him and the diver got out and let his door ding the side of the pristine show car, it even chipped the paint. The show car owner got out, surveyed the damage, yelled, "WHY?" Then he jumped up on the offender's car's hood and kicked the windshield in. The other driver just stood there with his mouth open.

    The show car owner then got into his car and drove back home. He never heard another thing about the incident.

    You guys in coastal BC & Washington have been getting hammered with snow this year. Please keep it there, we don't want it here.
