I'm hoping she had the convenience package and the key fob in her pocket. As soon as they stop the car, it would not start again!

The things a Neon owner will do to get a Mini... it is just sad... :)

Thankfully the lady got away with just a grazing, could have been much worse.

I heard that if you go to your local MINI dealership that they actually let you drive 'em. Of course, it may lack the excitement of an old fashion car jacking. :shock:

UPDATE

They located the carjacked MINI yesterday. The carjackers didn't drive it very far (just shy of 8 miles)
