Madonna's new car...

Did anyone see the news this morning that Madonna has bought a MCS?

Apparently she has gone for a fully spec'd EB MCS with 17" wheels, full leather and sat nav - £20k worth. Also, all of the guys at the plant who built the car have signed the chassis.

Even more reason to now keep your eyes open for any MCSs darting around London!

Hmmmmmm... Paul Weller. Maybe he's already here as well. Didn't he used to have a dodgy hair-do... You know, long at the back, short at the sides, spiky on top...

First name, Paul. Hmmmmmmm...

Madonna is getting the same car as me!

Except no sat nav for me, the A to Z was cheaper than £1400!

Celebrities and Royalty made the Original mini popular and gave it street cred, nothing wrong with it happening again with MINI

But.... Who would you rather see in concert ? Personally the mod father wins hands down - but then I am a bloke and I was but 15 when I first saw the Jam....

Also - I know "someone" who is a "key part" of the London Mini centre - and they did a mini for Mr Wheller - and original mini cooper - did not know that he has got a new MINI.

I also know where he buys his flowers !! - I'm not a stalker - just two rnadonm peices of information....

I've got the dammn thing, I love it and it's a right little stonker...

According to F1 magazine Juan Pablo Montoya is getting one. He already has a Cooper (courtesy of his employer ) but has given it to his girlfriend to run about Madrid in. He says he loves it but is looking forward to the extra power of the MCS.

Always knew he had style!

I'm guessing she had her bonnet enhanced and her boot tucked . . .
