hang on

scooperman_uk · May 20th, 2004, 06:55 AM

thanks..

that first pic dont look right. the launch and landing ramps look like they are made from packing crates. the uprights on them look like standard 7ply.

jordan · May 20th, 2004, 09:02 AM

there made of plywood

scooperman_uk · May 20th, 2004, 09:38 AM

thought so. dont look wide enough for a BMX either

Ian Clark · May 20th, 2004, 03:06 PM

PLus that convertible seems to be a little too far to the left of those ramps if you ask me.. . The MINI on the ground seems to be out of proportion... Plus I'm not quite sure how safe jumping a convertible with it's roof down and no roll cage would be.

teehom · May 21st, 2004, 08:53 AM

Is that cabrio black eye purple then?

i agree, the ramps look too small, the perspective angles look wrong. guess we will have to wait until the NEC to see.

its probably a composite shot to give an idea of what they are going to be doing at the show. makes no odds if the roof is down - a piece of nylon isnt going to add any strength, thats what the rollover bars in the rear are for.

the cabrio looks like its hyper blue

Havent seen the issue of autoexprees but I know that this took place the middle of last week I wont reveal the location as not sure wether or not they revealed the SECRET location in tthe mag or not - as I could have gone to watch but unfortunatly I was at work - As one car does the jump the other does the handbrake park manouver - those Pirelli stickers look v familar

look just like the ones on my car

Parc77 · May 21st, 2004, 05:30 PM

The pics are real!!

daz111 · May 21st, 2004, 10:23 PM

that is a cool blue mini seen the colour in flesh at tour of cowley factory

eddie_DV52_CCZ · May 26th, 2004, 10:14 PM

nah it could be real.. teh reflection in teh glass shows that something is above itand on treh bonnet. could also be a set up though. does look strange, but that might be teh fact its flying through the air!

jordan · May 27th, 2004, 06:08 AM

this is a real pic and its what is happening in the mini open air theate at this years british motorshow

Faz · May 27th, 2004, 04:41 PM
