Unique MINI photos from 2001 and onward

My old site the Switchback needed a refresh, I was kind of bored. Then I started going through my old photo archive. And I was struck with an idea...

Check out the results at the Switchback. There's plenty more to come. Hopefully you'll find something interesting there.



What I hope may add some spice is that many of these I haven't published before, and are "out-takes" and "behind the scenes" photos from MINI media events and launches.

Interesting to see these photos after 10 years of the New MINI. Look forward to seeing more.

Wow, those early MINIs were really good looking cars! Thanks for sharing the photos.

Thanks folks. There's now three series of photos on the Switchback site, with more coming soon. I'm going to drip feed the content over time to fill in the ten years or so I've been taking pics at various MINI events and occasions.

Nice to see the extra pictures and recognise the pub on the Grand Union. I'll be following these photos with interest right up to late 2006.

I still remember driving up past that pub, the look on people's faces was brilliant, great location for measuring reactions if you have a car that stands out!

Wow

Lovely pictures. It's weird to see the R50 shell and original colours!
