    i took some vids on my phone and just checked them just now i forgot to put the sound on doh!! the cup and ball trick does not really work without sound lol

    i managed to catch the last showing of killers elite before heading back home. got back about 1am


    was it just me or did the coupe feel a bit cramped inside?
    they just need to hand it over to a tame racing driver to see the air brake come into play

    Great pics! They just posted pictures up on face book but there not half as good as these.
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    Nice photos!

    The Coupe's got a proper boot, which actually makes it more practical for someone like me who carries more stuff (holidays etc) than passengers... Hmmm. Still not sure about that roof though!

    I agree on both points elfman! Would like to see what it looks like with a body colour roof and no stripes.

    Ha ha, the dude doing the bar flair is one of my mates...guy called Adam Ingram. Used to play American Football with him, and can genuinely remember the day he took his first flair bottle to practice and we all laughed at him. Safe to say he's pretty good now!

    On to the coupe....I keep changing my mind every time I see it, but will wait until I see it in the flesh!

    I agree about the height too - I'm 5'7" but like to drive quite upright. My head was level with the top of the windscreen so vision felt a bit restricted.

    Robert you should drop some of your pics onto the Vardy or Scottish MINI fb page. You might get yourself a job as official photographer next time

    Stewart, it was me that said hi over there in case you wondered who the hell!
