A few of you may of already seen the article in the latest UK Mini Magazine with the Minis in google street view.

Its pretty cool and worth taking a look at!

Just search 'Col de Turini' and drag the little street view man right on top of the red location marker.

Awesome spot!

cool!

to those who don't know hot to drive streetview, go to maps.google.com, search for 'Col de Turini', then use the slider thing at the left to zoom in as far as you can. Then drag the little yellow man onto the map area. You'll see he has a green spot underneath him, drag that onto the red marker. You might need to drag the view around to the left to see the minis

Not quite, out house still shows a Jan 2010 photo. But it is heaps better than Google for aerial shots.

It beats Google maps over our way, our last roof shot was taken in 2006 when the house was being built.
