The pants magazine Mini World seems to be moving to the dark side and having more and more adverts offering Bini parts and services. It's a bad magazine anyway and I will be changing my subscription to Minimag when it runs out because I can't stand that poncey editor Monty Watkins.

Rant over, merry Christmas one and all.

Yes they should be allowed to advertise parts. I didn't know people even paid attention to the adverts to be honest, pure volume of adverts annoys me :lol:

I don't buy eny mags any more because I have better things, like my phone bill, to spend £4 a month on :shifty:

I must admit I'd probably be peeved (if I bought the mags) to see Binis featured but adverts don't exactly enhance a magazine in my view anyway, whatever they're for, though obviously I realise they need to be there to finance the magazine :(

I wonder if New Mini magazine advertises classic mini parts... Probably half the same suppliers to be honest so I imagine so!

As a side note I edited the topic title to "Binis" instead of "Bibi's", festive drinks must have muddled your fingers :P

As notable on here alot of Classic owners also own Binis so its relevant to some readers... And as said above its only an advert! Its not like your missing anything because of it!

Ooops, sorry, I've started something now. Sorry but I was incredibly bored on xmas day and it got the better of me. I'm now feeling better as I have been in the workshop all day making air rifle silencers for a customer in Italy. What's a Bibi anyway?

saddos!!!!

you grumbling about the mini adverts to be honest mate if thats the worst thing you have to worry about in life your very lucky!!!


an idea for you all, get one and have a drive in a cooper S works on a backroad/motorway/track there brilliant and a great way to keep your loved one (proper mini) dry through out the crap weather!!!!


p.s. those companys are simply showing they cater for all as they do both new an old stuff
p.p.s you'll find that mini world is from the same publisist as the modern mini (i think!!) so thats also probably got something to do with it!!!!
