annecs · Jun 12th, 2005, 01:03 AM

Can anyone post a copy of this cartoon? Thanks!!

Mini Me GB · Jun 12th, 2005, 12:16 PM

Yea it was great, lot's of detail.. I'm guessing Mac is a Mini driver

keep an eye on www.dailymail.co.uk/mac - they haven't uploaded it yet but it's the June 9th cartoon when they do..

annecs · Jun 12th, 2005, 08:27 PM

Are you sure as I've checked and the message at the bottom states that cartoons are only available for the dates shown and since they have skipped that date I wasn't sure if they would still post it. If anyone has a copy, I'd love to see it-
Thanks! Anne

I guess you're right there; the other cars are nothing, but I think that MINI must be a One in Pepper White. What do you reckon?

Come to think of it, does MAC know something about the uncertain future of the clamshell bonnet that he's trying to break to us?

Well it could be Liquid Yellow.......Im also thinking its a Cooper, the roof is a slightly lighter shade suggesting a white roof!

Its fairly low sepc though, with just pepper pot alloys......

I think the bonnet wouldn't actually be such a bad design.... its just like the classic minis....!!

It is a pretty basic spec; Perhaps it not a parking ticket, perhaps it's has been issued for:

"parking a built up area, during the hous of daylight, without even so much as a pair of bonnet stripes, let alone a set of 17 bullets and / or colour keyed arches"

Actually, with the conventional bonnet it could get really retro, complete with grazed knuckles from trying the contortions to access something as simple as the oil dip stick

Then, in a few years time they can introduce the square fronted "Clubman" variant in a brave attempt to solve the self induced problem

Tigger.

Tigger, Eeyore & Roo · Jun 13th, 2005, 02:28 PM

You know, it might be a Cooper; I was wondering.

But who on Earth would have a Cooper with 15" alloys?....

Oops

Tigger.

The must have optional extra will be the 3' piece of 2 by 2 to prop the bonnet up!

I also hear they may start mounting the gearbox in the oil sump again!

Perhaps they like the ride quality that 15s offer!

And then they will mount the car's distributor inside the washer fluid reservoir so that it doesn't just suffer engine ignition failure in heavy rain, but does it on nice days as well.

What would be EVEN better..... you know how Impreza's and Evo's have the Intercooler Water Spray button on the dash....

The MINI could have a distributor water spray button!! So you can break down when YOU feel like it

That'll be a 3' piece of 2 by 2 in light alloy (with JCW logo) for the Cooper S Works version

PMSL

Did they ever get around to moving that distributor cap?

I think it got a redesign in the end!

This would be a good addition though.... I could choose when to break down!!

Just I wouldn't choose 7.50 on a Sunday morning in the middle of nowhere! When im on my way to a MINI run!

Tigger, Eeyore & Roo · Jun 13th, 2005, 04:17 PM

Is there any truth in the rumour that that's Paul Mullett walking away from the MINI in the cartoon?

Tigger.

Paul · Jun 13th, 2005, 05:01 PM

Looks like he's wearing a suit. So that's a no.
