MINI Merchandise & Memorbilia

Who else has some rare bits sitting about the house. I was tidying out some drawers and forgot that I had an original JCW brochure covering the original JCW tuning kit for the Cooper and also the Cup cars.

Ive got other bits including a MINI adventure kit that came with a toothbrush and I’ve got a few MINI passports as well that I’ve never used and still have the chassis number stickers that where sent with them to be stuck in.

Nice one William. I have a stack of brochures, promo stuff & magazine articles dating from 2000/2001 to around the launch of the F56. Rediscovered them during my endless Lockdown Spring Cleaning! I even have a Mini ‘Gold Ingot’ (just a shiny cardboard box unfortunately) which must date from the “Italian Job” remake... I’ve found loads of stuff hidden in cupboards & drawers which any ‘normal’ person would’ve thrown out years ago, but annoyingly I can’t find the Dyno Sheet for my current car which I’ve put ‘somewhere safe’. I know the numbers and I even have a wee video of the runs, but it’d be good to have it ‘on file’ with the rest of the car’s history. If I get organised (!) I’ll see if any of the earlier brochures are worth a picture.

Nice to see them Elfman

I’ve got this tucked away somewhere for the day I eventually get a garage

Really nice Elfman. I’ve also found the launch stuffs for the R56 Challenge car and postcards that came with it, that I luckily managed to get my hands on. There’s a box at Mum and dads with a lot of my stuff in I’m sure.

Reslly nice.

Of course, my most precious item of Mini Memorabilia has to be the Prodrive WRC MINI front valence which NMS incredibly kindly got for me a few years ago when I was in hospital and missed the trip. It’s still hanging in my garage. I have photos but they’re on my old laptop! It’s most excellent and even better because it has the “WRC 3” number plate, 3 being my ‘lucky number’ - hence G3 ELF!

I've got a mini rucksack somewhere.....it came with lots of car care stuff in it....��
