I've been thinking,

They can make a 55,500 tonne ship float and travel around the world.

They can make an AirBus A380 that weighs up to 560 tonne fly around the world.

Why the hell can't anybody seem to make a length of road that can carry a 70 tonne truck last for more than a year or so, without getting completely stuffed.

Micky D, is that your car? It looks like it's getting a fair workout on the docks there.. haha

From what i have been told, these first few new MINI's arriving in Melbourne will all be going to MA, I believe they have a sales person training day in them in mid Feb on a large island, where clubMINI just happens to be touring, we will invite them to join us for a run up the Cradle!

If you are in Sydney keep 18 March free, there could be some real MINI fun occurring.

I saw my first registered R56 on Saturday, a Chili Red Cooper driving through Geelong along the waterfront at approx 5pm, couldn't get a pic as I was walking my dog at the time. I did get a bit excited though and drove around the streets looking for it again, but for zip. It disappeared.

What exactly is happening on the 18th? Would be very much interested in getting up close and personal with the new mcs..
