Anyone seen this at the dealers ??

I flicked through it when I sold my S to Wollaston MINI this week

But what a fab book..... some great development sketches and concepts in there, along with all the history.

Asked if I could buy one but they only get given one copy per dealership aparently!!

Anyone know different?

Phil.

I think one of the sponsors (woodmans?) were doing a group buy on them

Phil.... is it the one called 'the little book of mini' by Brian Laban??

blue/white MINI on the front??......

(just checked Lauras link and its not...though it is another good MINI book with history-MINI One D 2004)

Phil Craddock · Apr 21st, 2007, 02:59 PM

Its the big one in the dealers, multicolored cover, square, loads of pages and tons of really cool visuals of the MINI family.

If you don't like/care about marketing ********, I find Graham Robson's "New MINI - Second Edition"to be a fantastic book as well.

CooperS4us · Apr 23rd, 2007, 08:27 PM

I think this new book concentrates more on the "cult"aspect of the MINI ownership experience by mentioning MINI clubs and internet forums/blogs.

But this begs the question... How many more books do we really need about the new MINI?

We have...

Patrick Paternie's book

Graham Robson's book

and now this new edition.

I have it and it's an excellent book indeed.
Very informative and superbly put together and laid out.
Lots of superb pics and sketches.

I have the MINI concept book too which is worth finding..

Phil Craddock · Apr 23rd, 2007, 08:32 PM

Book Of MINI ordered and will be with me in a day or so.

Andy P · Apr 23rd, 2007, 08:42 PM

Heather bought this for my Birthday and its great

Phil Craddock · Apr 23rd, 2007, 08:51 PM

I can't wait - makes up a little for letting my S go last week....

smartbomb · Apr 23rd, 2007, 08:52 PM

Is a great read...

South Shore Lad · Apr 23rd, 2007, 09:35 PM

How do you get hold of the MINI Concept book?

I saw a copy in Bowkers, Preston.

The MINI book is brill (got a copy) but this one looks even better! Is it a dealer only jobby as I couldn't see an ISBN on it or anything.

All help welcome!
