It might have been me..... I do it all the time.... Sometimes I get this strange look if it's a female wondering..... Do I know that crazy guy, flashing his lights and waving at me. Probably a stalker.... Look away, Look away.... what ever you do, don't wave at the crazy guy in the MINI.:crazy:
Speaking of ... has anyone with the Xenons found that people keep flashing you, thinking that you have your high-beams on? Maybe mine need to be re-aimed, but it's been happening to me quite often lately.
It might be worth checking the aim. They look a lot brighter when they're angled up. Either that or you've got a bunch of stalkers who are trying to get your attention. Just look away and don't wave at the crazy people. =)
They still adjust (do the down, up routine when I turn the car on), I just wonder if their final resting place is off kilter.
There was a lot more waving/flashing in the beginning. Then it went away as people started buying Minis for other reasons then owning a Mini. I have become a grizzled Mini owner and stopped being the initiator myself. But it still warms my heart when someone waves or flashes me. Even if they drive a Gen 2.
Yep when we first got the Mini other owners seemed to go out of their way to give a wave......now many of the new owners act offended when you wave to them.... But I still wave away!
Yeah...... Sometimes it's just me, the trench coat and those big floppy galoshes with the buckles undone.
Oh...I forgot to mention..... I flashed back. And waved as well. And I have no idea what you people are talking about with this "raincoat" stuff. But it sounds sinister. :frown2: Where's a Moderator when you need one. :skep:
MM, I know where your business is located...not the best area to be standing in a raincoat with boots on :eek6:
Trench coat, Trench coat... Slightly more style.... Sets me apart from the competition. Oh.... and I do prefer galoshes.
