Ok, so here is the dilemna.

My wife wants a mini, but she wants the purple haze color, they stopped
that color this year.

We managed to find a 2006 early model Cooper S in Purple haze, it is a
demo car with 753 miles on it.

The dealer says that this demo has been driven by the same salesman for
all the miles it has on it. I'm told Customers test drive other cars
that eventually get sent back to the factory and are not sold to the
customers.

The Salesman I that drove it I talked to, he says he broke it in very
well, he seems to be a mini enthusiast.

My question is has anybody bought a mini demo before and what are your
thoughts on buying one?

Good morning.  If you'll repost this on alt.autos.new-mini I'm sure
you'll get some helpful response.  This NG typically deals with the
original Mini :)

Well to be honest mate you'd be better off buying one of these:-

And no that bloke can't be a real Mini enthusiast either, because the
BINI (BMW so called MINI) isn't a real Mini i'm afraid.

Oh quite the contrary....he is a current model mini enthusiast! The
gentleman has already been redirected, the correct way, so go back in
your hole, taffy.

no your wrong, hes a MINI enthusiast, we are Mini enthusiasts...a small

No, you are full of sh.t. As I stated he is an enthusiast of the only
current production Mini. I don't care what kind of letter casing you use.
Tim - 19 Jun 2006 04:18 GMT
there you are again, just can't help yourself can you?

theres a world of difference between the Mini and the MINI, marketing and
brand "ownership" not withstanding.

One day the medical proffesion will get your medication right and we won't
have to listen to your offensive dribble any longer.....failing that you
could always go out back and give yourself a dose of lead poisoning, or a
severe case of rope rash of the larxyn....

Taffy,

I disagree with your assumption.  Someone can be a "real" Mini
enthusiast without owning one.  And in this case, the car being sold is
a demo.  The dealer selling it isn't trying to pass it off as an original.

Case in point:  the service manager of Downtown MINIs here in Orlando is
also a member of Sunshine Minis, a group that caters to both the
original Mini and the BMW MINI.  His wife drive a new MINI, but even
though he sells and services the new ones, his daily driver is an
original (a great looking car with a custom "Nemo" paint job).

Here's a link to a pic of Nemo if anyone's interested:

http://www.sunshineminis.org/gallery/displayimage.php?album=107&pos=163

I won't post a link to his wife's MINI!  ;)

What's sad?  The paint job?  A purist might be alarmed, but I think most
people see them as fun, happy cars.  A custom paint job like that only
adds to the fun of it.  Besides, people really seem to like that car at
outings.

Keith, I don't know why you're fighting with me.  My posting was a
response to Taffy, and not made to be argumentative.  In my response I
simply pointed out my contention that one could be a Mini enthusiast,
even if one owned a MINI.  As an example I posted a link to a picture of
a Mini which is owned and driven daily by someone who also deals daily
with the MINI.  He is a Mini enthusiast.  That is the only point I was
making.

That being said, did you look at the picture?  What do you think of the
paint scheme?    It's unique, to be sure!

If I may pose another question to you, have you ever considered "posing"
some of your models in different settings, such as cityscapes?  Perhaps
photographing some of the race cars on a race track?  It could be
interesting.

I know.  Different.  That's what I said... unique.  A lot of people like
it at the shows.

As far as how to pose the models on a track, you would first construct a
miniature set.  Shouldn't be that tough.  They're 1:43, right (assuming
you "fat-fingered" the keyboard when you typed 1:34)  :)

correction 1/34. Vanguards are 1/43, these are Corgi.
Although I am also a model maker, constructing many diferent sets would take
months, time which I do not have.

Yeah nice picture of a nice Mini dauph, but just proves my point that
to be a real Mini enthusiast, you have to own a real Mini and not the
BMW hatchback fake.

Taf, allow me to play the devil's advocate... If someone owned two Minis
and loved them, cared or them, knew them inside and out, you'd certainly
agree that they would be a Mini enthusiast, right?

And if that same person went out one day and bought a TR3, they haven't
lost their love of the Minis.  They're still a Mini enthusiast, correct?

What if they only owned one Mini?  Couldn't they still bean enthusiast?
 I say they can.

Now, the gentleman in question owns the Nemo Mini and a MINI cabrio.
His profession is a service manager at a MINI dealership.  Who knows?
Maybe he'd preer to work at a Mini dealership, but that isn't an option
available to him.  He still has to feed his family, right?

I thought to myself that perhaps I was misinterpreting what you meant by
"enthusiast".  After all, I'm an American, and you (as a people, not
personally) did invent the language! :)  So I went to dictionary.com and
looked it up:

en·thu·si·ast   n.

   1. One who is filled with enthusiasm; one who is ardently absorbed
in an interest or pursuit.
   2. A zealot; a fanatic.

I submit to you that someone can own one, two, or even zero Minis and
still be an enthusiast.  I grant you that there are diferent levels of
enthusiasm.  Heck, there is probably someone, somewhere, that has an
old, beat-up Mini rusting away up on blocks in his back yard, being used
as a hen house.  And shame on him for treating a great car that way!
But IF such a person existed, he most certainly would NOT be an
enthusiast!

This has all been somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and I hope it will be taken
with a grain of salt.  I do love the Mini, but even I will admit that I
can never match your enthusiasm without owning one.  Maybe one day, huh?

Steve68s - 13 Jun 2006 12:42 GMT
Fact is Dauphin, if a man owns 2 cars, a mini & a bini, he only has one
mini, even though the bini may be a nice car, it is not mini, the original
mini was called mini because it was small, this is something bini owners
can't understand,  they are different sizes, one is mini one is not, so if a
BMW euro hatch that has a higher roof line than a Audi A4, is 2 feet longer
than a real mini its not mini is it? the only people that argue with this
are people like you & madmax, so if you want contribute to discussing
classic mini please feel free to post, if not say quiet, one other thing
when I am posting on topic things about the bini, on the bini forum don't
call me a troll when its if fact you! TROLL :-)

If you want facts steve, there is no such car as a bini. Please! There
is a car, made by BMW, named mini. So, if a person owns an old mini and
a new mini, they own two mini's, regardless of size, color or
manufacturer. Face the facts, you are an idiot and YES you definitely
are a troll in the other newsgroup. Plus you are just constantly full of
sh.t.

Well, since Steve has kill filed me, he may not see this, but the fact
is that I have not called him a troll.  He does post on the MINI NG, and
usually has constructive things to say.  Not always, but "almost" no one
is complaining.

The only thing I ever remotely said about trolling was when he called me
a troll for posting here.  I asked him why when i post here was I a
troll, but when he posts on a.a.n-m is he not a troll.  He answered that
he was responding ON TOPIC to a question posted on that NG.  And sure
enough, that time he was.  There have been plenty of times that this was
not the case.  Even so, I never called him a troll.

If someone has an issue with madmax, I can understand that.  I've read
the archives of this NG, and have seen the bantering back and forth.
But to tell you the truth, I've been flamed by madmax too.  And I'm sure
I will be again, probably as a result of this post!

Look, the Mini is a great car.  This is my opinion, one that is shared
by MOST of the people posting here.  There are those who want to flame
or troll.  Unfortunately, not much can be done about that.  It's gonna
happen.  The Mini is "big" enough to take it (pun intended). :)

Sorry for rambling (again), but I feel I'm somewhat on trial here.  The
fact is that I am NOT a troll, I love the Mini, and I am not out to
cause trouble in this NG.  The only "crimes" I'm guilty of are owning a
MINI and being an American (as one poster said on December 4th, "I also
happen to dislike most Americans I've meet").

So Steve, on the outside chance that you see this, hopefully you'll
reconsider my "troll" label here so we can move on.

No flame Charlie, as long as people are civil I have no problem. It's
just when people start bad mouthing cars with the same name or calling
Americans names I have a problem. I originally came to this newsgroup
with a question about my 2002 mini. Instead of being politely directed
to the correct newsgroup, myself and my car were insulted to no end.
That is why I refuse to leave. Certain people here are just very set in
their ways and have no respect for the rest of the world. If steve has
kill filled you, thats even better, he has nothing good to say.
Taffy - 14 Jun 2006 02:55 GMT
Well i've got nothing against Americans as I have relations there, but
i'm no fan of the BINI.  Okay there's a lot of politics regarding the
BINI, but I myslef just see them as a replacement Metro and that was a
car that was designed to replace our Mini almost 30 years ago and I
naturally didn't like them either!

So yes i'd have been happy if they'd called it the BMW Metro or
something as that would be far more suitable considering the size and
weight of a BINI.

But yes if you love your BINI, then good for you, but I just consider
them to be another car to ignore and i'm happy to contribute to this
newsgroup as it concerns the real thing.

I'm with you on that one Taffy,
when ever I see a BMW effort, I look at the driver, and wonder what
possessed that person to buy that car on the first place,
and without sounding sexist, I must admit most drivers of the BINI are
female,
I would imagine that most females didn't choose the car for themselves as
they could be company cars that come with the job,
I feel they would have chosen something more flash and faster,better
looking,
I have asked my 2 daughters if they would consider a BINI for there next
car,
they both said NO although they thought it was an ideal woman's car, they
would not sacrifice there VWs for this car, they considered the golf to be
more of a status symbol, and felt safer driving it, faster, more reliable,
more economical, and a better resale value,
They also said they would not drive a classic mini as there every day car,
because of the comfort that comes with a modern car,
but considered the classic to be one of the "coolest" and nicest looking of
all small cars.

Present company included, madmaxx? <jk>  Listen, NG's exist for people
to express their opinions, right?  So what do I care if someone doesn't
like my car?  Believe it or not, I've run into a couple of people i.r.l.
who don't care for it... not many, but a few.  But that's ok, it's their
own opinion.

I understand that none of this is really a topic that belongs on an
automotive NG.  I apologize for adding to it.  I just wanted to give my
two cents worth.  I'm going back to a.a.n-m now!  :)

I joined this newsgroup a while ago after obtaining a 1989 Mini for
restoration. I had hoped to be able to gain some information from other Mini
owners while carrying out this task, but since seeing this sort of post with
it's language content I have decide not to bother and to join my local Mini
enthusiasts group instead.

Many thanks for the enlightenment on life and the world.

Well I always used my Mini's for travelling great distances to work
each day for years and in all weathers throughout the year too.

I mean work was boring, but the journey was something to look forward
too and then on a weekend i'd be off up to the Midlands or down South
to Bealieu or wherever to attend Mini Shows.

So yeah I clocked up some serious mileage, but I just enjoyed it (still
do too) and to drive anything else would have been boring.  Well I did
try giving up Mini's a couple of times and went the Hot Hatch route,
but I just got so bored of them and always ended up pining for another
Mini.

Anyway you might be surprised too as once your daughters have had a go
of driving a Mini for a few days, then they may change their minds?  I
did at least!  ;O)

Well stick around Vic, we're only too happy to help you out in any way
we can for your Mini mate, just kill-file the Troll and ignore any bad
language, which you shouldn't see if you've used the kill-file option!

The long haul huh. Pretty funny from the newbie. Like I said, it's only

Ooh...Tim is a big man! Pretty bold with the written word. You have me
shaking in my boots. No, wait, sorry I was just laughing at you. Now go
back to nursing on your bitch mother.
Tim - 20 Jun 2006 22:49 GMT
shaking now are we? Must me you need the Riterlin, or maybe some valium. But
I still beleive the best cure for your problem is that high dose of lead I
mentioned earlier...if you have problems self administering just join up
with GW's boys, Im sure theres a friendly Iraqi who'd love to give you your
medication.

Again tim, quite the man behind the written word, aren't you. Thank God
you are a queer, the world is better off without any of your offspring.
Tim - 21 Jun 2006 11:34 GMT
hahaha and you'd make judgements about me,now that is rich. Oh and for the
record my mothers quite well thank you so needs no nurseing, and shes far
from a bitch, shes actualy a really nice person...and far from being queer
as well, well at least my wife has never mentioned it. But there we go, just
go's to prove not only do you spout sh.t about Minis being the same as
MINIs, but you also spout sh.t about other things.....could this be becuase
you have no knowledge of either subject? I suspect thats the case.

I can't rmember who it was who said it but Im sure he wasnt an American,
but...

Actually the quote is: Sometimes its better to say nothing, and be
thought a fool, than to open your mouth and prove the summation right.
As far as making judgments, I only stated facts. You are a queer and
your mother was a whore. I never said anything about your mother being a
bitch or needing nursing. Those comments came right out of your empty
head. I would never compare the new mini with the old ,piece of sh.t,
mini either. Your credibility continually goes down hill with every lame
comment you make.
Tim - 22 Jun 2006 03:05 GMT
and yours is shot to peices...

to quote your self

"No flame Charlie, as long as people are civil I have no problem. It's
just when people start bad mouthing cars with the same name or calling
Americans names I have a problem. I originally came to this newsgroup
with a question about my 2002 mini. Instead of being politely directed
to the correct newsgroup, myself and my car were insulted to no end.
That is why I refuse to leave. Certain people here are just very set in
their ways and have no respect for the rest of the world. If steve has
kill filled you, thats even better, he has nothing good to say."

so where is this college paper your writing.....

and I still havn't meet and American I've liked......and you don't go anyway
towards chaging that opinion....

I still stand behind my quote. What is your point. None, as usual. As
far as the study, like I said, it is complete and turned in. The class
really got a good laugh from it. To bad it was before all of your
asinine comments. Oh,well, like I said, the lower class English, like
yourself, really are white trash.
