MINI collectibles

Thanks to a Mini owning friend (thanks Dave!) in NEMO, I learned of some really cool MINI+Mini artworks being sold on eBay … I contacted the seller, auto-artist, and he was kind enough to agree to customize the artwork to my specifications – and look at the result:

David / auto-artist customized the roof & bonnet stripes color to match GBMINI, and also replaced the license plate – the result is really excellent and I need to find a good frame for it … I totally recommend these artworks, and the price is almost a steal!

(in case you are wondering, my scanner clipped the bottom of the image – the Mini does have a roof!)

I received a couple more “collectibles” from MINI UK via eBay seller BMWpitstopshop recently, but I think these will come in very useful – giant beach towels! They come in either a “checkered roof” or “Union Jack roof” design, and “roof” is the right word because they are as big as a MINIs roof! I am not a small guy, but the towel reaches from under my shoulders to my ankles, and wraps round me about 1-1/2 times!

The towel quality is not fabulous, but for an “everyday wear” beach towel it will be perfect (if the quality was too good you wouldn’t want to use it!)

Having learned of this new MINI collectible on the NAM thread, I easily found some on eBay from BMWpitstopshop and with fast delivery here they are. Just like traditional Snap, but with MINI related pictures instead of numbers and suits:
