Most liked posts in thread: What do you hate about driving your mini?

It's not a problem as long as you can keep 3 out of 4 tires in contact with the ground.

 

#1) Left lane cruisers that do the speed limit. If you aren't passing someone........ GET THE F(_)CK OVER IN THE RIGHT LANE WHERE YOU BELONG.

#2) People fracking with their phones. Put them in the glove box if you can't help yourself.

My wife complaining about the ride.

 

I don't hate this necessarily, but I had an idiot once ask me if my Classic was legal to drive on the streets... Here's your sign!

 

I find the things I hate when I'm driving my MINI are the same things I hate when I'm driving my wife's CR-V. Now that I think about it, pretty much any car I'm driving.

 

When I'm getting gas the three questions that I'm constantly asked (not by the same person)
1. Do you get good gas mileage?
2. That's cute, what is it?
3. Does the roof come off? ( it's a Coupe)

 

I've learned that I can get that same result when I turn on my rear fog light! If they don't like that, I flash 'em a single digit wave I'm sure they'll see through the back glass.

 

Things that annoy me the most:

1) People who change into my lane not realizing that I'm there. This is usually some blind/stupid person driving an SUV. I realize Mini's are small, but really...

2) People who tell me it's a "cute girly car." My sister-in-law says this all the time, and it makes me want to punch her more than I usually do.

 

i fantasize about putting a single driving light facing backwards at the base of my antenna, so i can flick it on when some schmuck behind me is blinding me w/ their stupid lights because they're tailgating...

 

Usually giving someone a ride in the "cute" car puts an end to that nonsense.

I just mostly hate every other car on the road. But I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't matter what I drive for that to be true.

 

I'm 6'6", the most common question i get is "how do you fit in that"
my answer is always, "i open the door, and get in, it works everytime"

 

I absolutely HATE getting to my destinations and having to shut off my [3]MINIs. I love to drive them, as each has its own characteristics and look.

 

The thing I hate most about driving my MINI is having to drive with the top up. Oh...and getting out of the car.

 

:lol:

A young girl told me not to forget to turn off my engine as I was getting out of my car at the store - she mistook the sound of the turbo timer. I felt badly because my initial reaction was to giggle...she was just trying to be helpful...

 

I don't like being asked "how do you fit in there" I'm not unusually large. It's nothing more than an annoying attempt at a passive aggressive insult from the gas station attendant.
