    New 2 MA, I'm VioletDC; the MINI is Scoopie, a 2006 PH MCSa. Lovin' the community feel--never did this w/ANY of my previous cars. LOL! MINI brought me out of my shell. :blush2:

    Welcome to MA.

    I'm in La Plata...used to drive 210 past/thru Ft Washington on my daily commute for about seven years. How long have you had Scoopie? I'm wondering whether I might have seen you on the road. There aren't that many PH MINIs out there and I do remember spotting one in that general area once in a while. There was also an SG (gold) MINI I always noticed round about Old Fort Rd.

    Hello Steve! I got Scoopie new in 2006 from Tate (gag) MINI in Annapolis. I used 2 drive 2 Waldorf often when my best friend lived there, so it's likely u've seen me along 210/228 ... lol. We should get 2gether 4 a drive sometime! :Thumbsup:

    Really? Scoopie went back there for the 1st time in 4 yrs (it's under new management now; no longer Tate, just MINI of Annapolis) a coupla Saturdays ago 2 attend the DCMM M&G, and I must say, the vibe was muuuch better! I'm a C3M and HRMINI member, just 2 so I catch an event that I may otherwise miss. :D
