A new billboard has popped up over a "zero body fat" MINI ad in South Boston, MA. It shows a red MINI with the famous Starsky & Hutch stripe down the side. Text on the billboard begins with ... "Let's go undercover...." Quite clever!

Hmmm . . . Another thread talks about a Partrige Family billboard. It looks like the marketing folks have discovered '70's U.S. television.

Oh god, Danny Partridge hustling MINIs!

Although if they got Laurie Partrige (actress Susan Dey) to pitch them, that'd be hot...

I happened to see an Evel Knievel billboard the other day. Looks like it is indeed the '70s at Mini Corporate.

(So are they going to do a commercial with a Big Star tune, or what?)

God, that picture gives my unsavoury ideals involving lots of vinyl and questionable taste.
