In my part of the World, when something is rubbish, we describe it as MINCE.  Suits a BINI to a T.

To correct Dan, BMW did not buy the company when it had developed a new mini. It was Rover who was producing the last variation of the classic mini and Bmw bought Rover and totally redesigned a car using the same name. Then  BMW played hard ball and f**ked the mini community claiming legal rights to the name mini and their lawyers went on to hijack all the cottage industry mini related businesses claiming they owned their inventory etc.   So...... how about FU BMW?

And while it might keep our host in business, I'm not a fan of their cars. Too much technology that constantly fails.  Expensive to repair as parts are from BMW only and the resale value on these new MINIS is non existent.

NOTMINI would be appropriate...

As you don't state where you are (what State - if you are in the US), and other factors - the rules of your State such as how many letters do I have - some allow 5, some 6, or 7 letters.  Some have words you cannot use - say "hot" or a body part.  Years ago our secretary had "HOT LIPS" on her Mustang.  When she went to renew her tag she could not get the same same tag as either Kansas or Missouri did not allow them (the words hot or lips). Google personalized license plates to see some examples others have used.
"NOT2OLD" might work.

Welcome to the forum.

Whee's suggestion is a bit tongue-in-cheek. Most of the people here have classic Minis made by old British companies such as British Leyland, Rover etc. When the new Mini came out, BMW bought it up. So, the new Minis are made by BMW and are commonly referred to as BINIs. (in case you didn't know!). Up here in Ontario Canada, someone has "REAL MINI" on his classic. Another guy has "NOTABMW".

Since you have chosen the screen name "MiniMother", I'd suggest "MINI MOM". Not particularly clever, but it is a start.
As Whee says "Enjoy your car!"

.

"Hang on a minute lads....I've got a great idea."
