Cooper S in the S curves...Video!

My father was visiting from out of town. He has owned 7 or so classic Mini's and was imppressed with the new one. I took the opportunity to take some footage. If you look close you can see the grin on his face.

Fantastic!!

I LOVED IT!!! I've watched it 5 times in a row!

Great images and wonderful sound. You are lucky to have a MINI road like that nearby.



Thanks for sharing that.

I think the S was designed with Colorado driving in mind!

Thanks, that was fantastic. What a beautiful stretch of road. Took an S almost exactly like that one for a test drive today. I know I didn't look that good around the bends though. Damn city driving. Great video, great sound. If you've got any more feel free to share. I doubt anyone would complain.

Fantastic

I watched it 3 or 4 times, and saved the link to show the wife. The wait for my MINI is agony, and clips like this and all the great pictures and test drive reports really help.

The file format is ASF. This is a Microsoft Windows Media Player format. You're probably using Quicktime only.

The latest version is available here:

I was apparently not meant to motor.

minigal,

Download Windows Media Player as said above. I have Mac OS X so I use version 7.

Control Click or right click (if you have a 2 button mouse) and select "save link as". This will download a .asf file which opens with Windows MP.

Most fun on 4 wheels.

Yeah, I think he was taking it easy. I'm sure if the car was his those four wheels would have been smoking at the end of that drive!

I can't watch it in one go as it keeps stopping and buffering all the time. Is it possible to download the file and then watch it?

Thanks!

If you're using Internet Explorer: right click and do a "Save Target As". This should let you download it to your local system.

Long live broadband !

Very nice video.
I was searching for roads like that yesterday in Belgium, found some real nice ones, but not as nice as these .
Still enjoyed every 300 km of them !
