How to get spotted - hotspots?
by robtheplod Mon Feb 22, 2010 9:13 pm
OK, I've been driving about since October last year and have yet to be spotted 
. This makes me think that:
1. I'm not driving in the right places?
2. The grey of the car is acting as camouflage?
3. There's so many grey minis about nobody notices?
4. You've all seen me but there is a clubwide conspiracy to deny sightings?
5. I'm driving too fast? (unlikely!)
6. My car is not red enough?
Can anyone recommend a sure fire way of being spotted? - I had contemplated obtaining all of your addresses and parking outside each one for a few hours but this is a tad drastic....
Where is the mini hotspot area - somewhere around Stalham I would suspect??!!
I'm after advice from you guys who seem to have stalkers in the club!

I need to know the trick too! I have yet to be spotted by anyone the other thing is that since getting the new mini, apart from going to the club meets I haven't passed another classic on the road

That sounds like a good plan! then we can both post a spotted message on here and feel special! The other way to be spotted is to follow Alex around. he seems to be spotted at least once a week!

If you follow Alex around you're bound to get sighted by quite a few people..

I believe the secret is to drive on the Norwich ring road.

It must be my car's amazing looks and the fact that i'm being stalked by the entire club...
I should have my own mini convoy...StuddyFEX wrote:

My tip is probably the same, drive round the ring road/a47.Ian Nicholls wrote:I believe the secret is to drive on the Norwich ring road.

with that hair style you would stand out even more with a BLUE RINCE or a RED nose to go with your Red car

There's nothing wrong with my hair that a good shampoo couldn't fix..
