Have you just seen Madonna's Mini on tv?
Any more famous people driving them I wonder?

MiniMan7 · May 3rd, 2003, 06:11 AM

Anyone have a pic of her car?

Restyle · May 3rd, 2003, 06:15 AM

Blk/ Blk MCS just mentioned several times & shown on Johnathen Ross`s Prime time show where she`s the one & only guest .
She LOVES it.

Watching it at the moment, it seems there are a lot of celebs in the UK have MINI's

MINIALEX · May 3rd, 2003, 06:22 AM

That picture wasn't a Cooper S though was it and she said itg cost 15,000 so either its a well specced Cooper or a pretty standard S, it definitely had S spokes on it anyway!

yellow peril · May 3rd, 2003, 06:23 AM

It's definitely a Cooper S - there was a picture of it in Heat magazine soon after she took delivery. It's black with a body coloured roof.

MiniMan7 · May 3rd, 2003, 06:28 AM

So which is it? An EB or Black MCS?!

MINIALEX · May 3rd, 2003, 06:31 AM

its definitely black

MiniMan7 · May 3rd, 2003, 06:40 AM

How come in the article above it said she bought an electric blue Mini Cooper?

MINIALEX · May 3rd, 2003, 06:43 AM

I don't know but the picture was of her driving a black with S spokes

So thats why American Tourists keep throwing Vegetables at my Car !

Lorri · May 3rd, 2003, 06:46 AM

There are a lot of reports saying the same thing! Maybe she'll join one of the runs and we can see for ourselves? Ok maybe not

5280Motoring · May 3rd, 2003, 07:05 AM

I fear this trend will make the MINI uncool in short order. I mean, Madonna hasn't been cool for years. Maybe it's a desperate attempt to appear cool once again. On the other hand, I have an MCS, but it hasn't made me cool yet. But I didn't buy it to follow a fad, I bought it because it's a VERY capable automobile that's a ball to drive.

Paul · May 3rd, 2003, 07:07 AM

There are pics of madonna and her MINI on this very forum.

Try a search, they're out there just waiting to be re-discovered....

It's an all black Cooper S.

Oh yes it was.

BruceK · May 3rd, 2003, 11:29 PM

Okay, she's reportedly worth £227m (!) and she's upset about paying the London £5-a-day congestion charge to drive her MINI Cooper S near her home:

Good point.

But it's not $227 million US dollars, it's UK pounds. (£227M = US$364M)

So, to put it another way, she's a millionaire 364 times over!

And it's a $8 a day congestion charge.

Pebbles · May 4th, 2003, 08:36 AM

Madonna has a Cooper ? I thought she was dead.

Perhaps it was wishful thinking! She makes us American ladies look bad! Please don't think we are all trash! Her having 9 abortions and 2 of them between her 2 live children, was enough for me! What was once cute (1985 Desperately Seeking Susan) is now totally gross! I hope she crawls back under the rock she came out from.

Just thinking about her owning a black MINI makes me happy I'm getting one in Chili Red with white roof!

I'm sorry, I went off like this! I'm just shocked. Perhaps it's been news for awhile but I don't keep up with entertainers and what they do or drive.

It's not about much money you have, it is probably the principle. Cos if lived in London I wouldn't be best pleased at having to pay it. In Britain we pay road tax, are heavily taxed on petrol and are there any improvements in the roads or the supposed alternative of public transport ??? Nope they are all c**p !! So what do we pay these taxes for so Bair and his spin doctoring cronies can have a nice time, cos it don't seem to be used for improving the country !!!
