The Simpsons rent a MINI - MINI Cooper Forum

Anyone see the new Simpson's episode last night? They end up going to England, and rent a MINI! Matt Groenig must have one because even the dash vent was in the right place/shape. They got suck in a roundabout and when the swerved out they hit the Queens coach, Homer was put in the dungeon, but was finally pardoned by the Queen, on the condition he take Madonna back to the states.....

Anyone know what colour it is?

Rakey · #10 (**permalink**) Nov 25th, 2003, 12:20 PM

it has been posted somewhere in this thread its a kind of redish colour

I saw it on Sunday night. The color was a bit lighter than CR, also when they rented the MINI there was a Green (again lighter than BRG) MINI in the lot. And Marge's hair sticks out the sunroof ..... the non-opening rear sunroof

It was a funny show.

Hehe, that's a good press shot, but didn't appear in the episode. Tony Blair(the one shoving Homer's head, of course), Sir Ian McKellan (old guy in the kilt, obviously), and J.K. Rowling (the blond woman behind Tony Blair) also had special guest appearances. Also seen are the Queen (think you can figure out which one she is

), an old flame of Abe Simpson's from the war and..eh...don't remember who the dark-haired guy giving Homer's bum a push is, hehe. Good episode, as usual.
