GoMini issue 1

Posted on by Ian C.

I received the first issue of go mini, a new British publication dedicated to the new MINI. It has a number of interesting articles, including modified MINIs, an interview with the famous (in England) Jeremy Clarkson, and a look at some seriously upgraded MINIs produced to promote audio/video products made by Pioneer – these pics are from the article “in the boot is our biggest subwoofer … 5000W … four amps running it! It’s very heavy and we had to uprate the suspension”

Wow!

Until a US-based MINI-specific magazine appears, Go here to order a subscription to this magazine; the price is a reasonable £35 ($50-$60) for one year (six issues).

Snow delays return from Walt Disney World

QUESTION: What is Mickey Mouse favourite car?
ANSWER: A MINI (Minnie Mouse)!
A not-so-funny (thanks Joanne) reference to the DisneyWorld vacation that Margaret & I have finally returned from. We were away for a week, and should have returned on Saturday but the extreme weather here in the north east left us stranded in Washington DC for two days.
We just got home this evening – the main roads are clear but the back roads are dreadful. And we have a lot of digging out to do in the morning!

On the other hand, GBMINI looks very cute:
