    The license plates are incorrect. These are clearly not manly. At all.

    Sounds to me like MINI stole Murilee's 1982 Datsun voice warning box and packaged it into the Official Car of The American Metrosexual.

    Mini fails for calling it "Mission Control" and not slapping some European Space Agency decals on it.

    Commencing countdown, engines on
    Check ignition and may gods love be with you


    Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five,
    Four, three, two, one, liftoff


    This is ground control to major tom
    Youve really made the grade
    And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear

    @A stʁolling playeʁ: It's a good thing Mini didn't call the other car "major Tom." I wouldn't want to buy something that's guaranteed to end up with it's circuits dead.

    I expect next they'll do the MINI Clubman Ground Control, it'd be one spacious oddity.


    In the British tradition, however, the electrics will be crap, with dead circuits everywhere.

    The car will have certain "dialogues" with the driver


    Mayfair: "Say, be a love and fetch me some fresh oil from the shops, would you? And please slow down a bit. Cheers."


    Camden: "Hey, mon, ya wanna smoke? It don't affect ya drivin', no not one bit. I promise."

    It will also tell the driver what their ratings are on the Cock-O-Meter, the Soccer-Mom meter or the Hipster-Meter.

    I passed what appeared to be a Clubman the other day--it just looked like another Mini but with an ass deformity of some kind.

    That's because the Clubman is an ugly, fat piece of junk.


    Sorry, I'm bitter. I saw a REAL Mini yesterday. You know, the Mr. Bean Minis. There really is no similarity at all with these big BMW things.

    @Dr.Danger is a pottymouth: HEAR THIS BMW!? LISTEN TO US!


    Your target market shouldn't be mid-life crisis men, school run mums and spoilt teenage girls...IT SHOULD BE JALOPERS.


    Every time BMW produces another badge-prostituted Mini I die a little inside. Not just because they're not real Minis, but because people think they are.


    I hate to admit it, but these days when someone says "Mini" I immediately think of the bulky BMW...not the original, and it hurts me; I feel ashamed every time I see a classic one.

    @Dhillaz: @Dr.Danger is a pottymouth: I would LOVE to be able to buy something cool and tiny like this. I quite like the SmartCars (before you rant, remember, we get the good diesels up here) but they're just not awesome the way the original Mini was.


    Furthermore, I've driven a Mini, (a real one, I mean) and still don't understand how they can have so much goddamn room inside! How is it they're larger on the inside than on the outside?
