mab01uk, Do you have one of the Bini car wash thing at Mini 50 was it?

Especially for Sir Cheat the car wash @ Mini United Silverstone

OMG!!!! I'd kill them if they washed my car like that. No Pre-wetting to get the dust and grit off, just straight in with a soapy sponge!!! A bottle of i could only guess is concentrated washing solution on the roof, which depending on how cheap the brand is, could damage the paintwork if not washed off properly! Insufficient water to rinse off the car and get the suds out of any recesses! Lastly.............They Were Wearing Too Much Clothing

Im more worried about the length of their nails on the paint work

Grow up or shut up.

The reason the Bini is nothing like the original, is because the original is no where near to passing any of the modern day regs.


Theres better technology so BMW used it, they capitalised on an extremely strong brand name and reputation which our car gave BMW.
They produced a reliable, fun quirky car for all classes! and many manor of people. Just like ours. Granted they don't apeal to people less well off as the car fetches a higher premium, thats because its manufactured and engineered to a high quality standard. If it was manufactured to the same costs as those korian cheap hatchbacks it wouldn't be half the car it is.


I love the old mini, if anyone has any doubt about that, read through my project thread from start to finish and im pretty sure you'll realise my love and determination for it.

Im just realistic living in the real world and can accept and realise a good car when its sitting in front of me.
Some people are just stubborn and being obtuse for the point of it.

It is the successor to the mini, build a bridge and get over it.

of course the BINI is nothing like the original
and no one is denying its a good car

but i thought this was still a classic mini forum, so allowing a topic about MINIs in the mini chat seems odd?

[M44K TS]

absolute sense

[mini_mad69]

Carrying on with the topic........ Without the sticker... I love this one

[minispaniard]

it does indeed, unfortunately you or I have voice but not vote... and not answers!!!

[cooperdan]

Missing the point,

So they built a new hatchback, to try and look like a classic mini thats not the issue, Well done desserve some sort of plastic trophey..

You cant judge peoples opinions mate, Its like me saying to nick, V-tec's are a load of bleep'ty bleep what would you know, (although he is yet to put one in)

Get over it, That has nooooo context what so ever....Dont need to get over anything, I dont like mushrooms but i cant get over it as it makes me heave...

[Shifty]

It looks like some of the kiddiwinkies have had way too much blue pop this evening.

I really don't know what some people are trying to prove but all its showing is a complete lack of maturity.

Show some self respect and think before you post and make utter fools of yourselves.

I mean get over the fact MINIs are in mini chat, they are the successor to our car. And loads of people have proved they like them here and that it was a worthwhile thread that people are enjoying to read and look at the pretty pictures. If it was going to be moved, I would have thought if it was going to be moved it might have been done by now (not sure on that though)

If you don't like it, don't open this thread?

Get over the fact... MINIs are not Minis

[minispaniard]

well, then.

If this is going to be the case I think the whole forum will benefit from a new specific BINI section... or maybe include a rule saying that a new post should be clearly named with the word MINI, so that I don't have to accidentally click on it (??)

they are a successor....

but they are in no way the same

The Minisport Rally Team + The Red Arrows are pretty cool
