Has anyone seen, heard of, a widened mini?
i was just thinking how cool a wide van would look. Low long and fat.

That's the new Mini Cooper S GP which is the only one I'd buy (if I won Lotto). I'd have to win a shedload to justify the price tag for different colour mirrors, mags & side exit exhaust...

I like the German Iron Cross wheels. Don't mention the war.

Yep the wheels are great..

I wonder if there is a Swatstika version of them though.. As I think they would be nicer :lol:

the wheels look crap. the side exhaust is cool but would be better if it was a big ass chrome pipe comin down the side. anyone seen this done on a mini before? would be cool

No, the wheels don't look crap. They are clearly an update of my Dunlop mags, and are very cool. This is not opinion, this is an empirical and scientifically provable fact.

:wink:

Why they don't make them like they did in the old days (Go out the back of the factory and see what was left over from other cars, then stick a different manufacturer's name (Riley) on it)? Or maybe those mirrors are off a BMW Z4? And the ducts in the front are clearly from a Sony Megablaster PSP Expansion Pack.

Actually I would never buy a Bini; they have too much plastic 'styling' on them for my taste.

that's not really a side exit exhaust is it? surely it's just rice....

here's a widened mini for you - factory experiment for the husband and wife who needed more elbow room, it's hard to tell without something to compare it against.

[edited again - something is stuffed with my web host, it'll come good eventually - I hope]

I think that BINI is actually more than just looks - they have fixed back seats, no air0con, no rear seat, etc. Saves 40Kg, apparently. Of course, you pay extra to not get those things. Oh, extra power is by a different 'cooler.
