If you don't like BIMI's watch this, if you do grab a box of tissues and then watch.

should happen to all of them.

I like how they didn't drain it of fluids and they spill on the ground. everyone worries about the oil spilled in disasters like Exxon Valdez and Deepwater Horizon / Macondo ... the amount of oil there is nothing compared to what is spilt in domestic and 'other' industrial setting such as this.

That was AWESOME! :D
Did you notice that the big industrial claw struggled to pick the big, heavy H.O.S. up.
It had to rip it apart just to lose enough weight to get it in the air!
:lol: :P :lol: :P :lol:

i'm no greenie mate. my view is they should have left the spilt oil from Exxon Valdez ... did you know that the areas that were not cleaned recovered better than areas that were cleaned because the greenies kicked up a fuss.

Obama and Hayward should have said they were going to leave nature to take care of itself in response to Macondo ...

did you not see the spill on the ground?

get informed you clown.

That's what I thought too. It showed that they are a very robust little car.

Don't get me wrong I don't like these cars at all but it's a bit of a waste really. Does any one know why this happened to it any way?

The car probably never had a VIN and was not road registerable anywhere. It's probably a tax writeoff at this stage.

It was a pre-production model, its life was actually extended so it could be raced (rather than just a promotional pre-release "pilot" vehicle).

Who cares.

Imagine how many MINIs have been destroyed by drivers in road accidents :!:

I had that done to a clubman once, I'd removed all the bolts from the front subframe, and wanted the guy to lift the body off it. But I'd only loosened the steering column pinchbolt, but I hadn't removed it. After they couldn't lift the body off the subframe, they turned the body over and put a chain around the subframe (engine still in it) and swung the car around, it still didn't let go, so then they held the body down with one machine and yanked on the subframe until the pinchbolt gave way... the body was rooted, it had been used as a paddock basher and they liked to smash their cars together...
