GOMINI and Steve at MINI Peabody

Steve (“Cape Cod Mini”) was at MINI Peabody when I visited today; his car “GOMINI” (on the left in this picture from last year) was having an oil leak fixed:

Steve was also having new brake pads & rotors put on the car - now that he has the pulley, intake and nitrous system, I guess he needs to stop quicker too!

There was a surprising number of MINIs with personalised / vanity plates today - as well as Steves GOMINI and my GBMINI, there was CAMCOOP, PKTROKT, MINIAC and DRMWEVR. There were only two other MINIs with generic plates - suggesting that MINI owners are somewhat fanatical! Surprise?
