One of the new characters out of Disney's Cars 2 is a MINI called Ronnie Del Cooper.

it's a great movie - well worth going to see on the big screen. There are a lot of binis in the background of crowd scenes (BMW must've cashed out for product placement)

I was looking for a classic the whole time watching this but I didn't find any. Heaps of binis as said (mostly as paparazzi), I reckon somebody has said 'use only the new minis'.

Pretty sure Sports850 said there is a couple of classics in the background but I doubt they will make a model for us classic only collectors.

Saw it this morning,

The pit crew for the Aston Martin DBR9 racer was all BRG 60s Minis as far as i could tell.

Lots of Binis, lots of Fiat 500s and Puntos throughout too.

And about 1 in 20 of the background 'extras' in Japan were Nissan Figaros!
