Hampton Roads Club Mini

I can attest to Flow MINI's reputation.  The Tar Heel group has had quite a few satisfied customers, whether it be with a  new MINI sale or getting repairs covered.  In a couple of cases, the repairs have been covered out-of-warranty.

Sponsoring a Pub gathering is one more reason Flow MINI is catering to the MINI enthusiast!   

Negative. I spoke with Mark Vogler, THMMC's founder a while back and he said point blank, they are not, or ever plan to be a 501c3 or incorporate. They are just like us, a club. Very unofficial, except they do have officers. And no, I do not thinnk they have dues. I'm a member and have never paid a dime.

Now I am a member of DC Metro, they do have dues and are incorporated and a 501c3. But they do everything more complicated up there!

I've talked to folks from Checkered Flag before, and since we aren't a registered 501c3 they don't want to help us since they can't write it off as a donation to a non profit. However, somewhere along the line, donations and the like are often looked at as "dealer goodwill" and a cost of doing business. I do it all the time at Maaco. I consider it a form af advertising. It must work, my shop is busier than most in the area. Food for thought......

AMEN!
