Hi,
I am Dolores Quintero Sanchez and the current NorCal Mini Treasurer. I became a car enthusiast even before I began driving. I love sports cars and the need for speed J. I purchased my first Mini R55 (Clubby) in 2010. I had always like Minis, but the lack of cargo space was a problem for me and my work. I drove Dolorus (#1) and had to have her. She was a basic model and the only clubby at the dealership! This picture was one of her very fun runs we took as a family and won the NorCal photo contact!
After we joined the club and got more involved and gained a better insight into the mini culture, I traded her for Dolorus (#2). I have had her since 2013 and I moved up to an “S” to get the turbo going! I have taken her on numerous club runs and 2 MTTS across the US. My daughter Vanessa has been the co-pilot on both, hubby Rick only joined us for half of 2016.
I have heard said that Minis that having a “Mini” is contagious, I do believe it is true. Happy motoring and “Save the Wave”! Wave at your fellow Minis!
