MINI + Artists + Paint + Switzerland = WASH ME

Give an Artist a bucket of paint, brushes, sprayers and God knows what else and an order to get creative on the MINI Cooper – and you’ll get what you have asked for. Below are some crazy designs several Switzerland Artists are displaying in a new book, which you actually can check out online at washme.ch. When you would like to have the documentation in print, just visit the WashMe website. As I could see was there an order button. Enjoy the pictures…this VJ (a.k.a.

POTD: Goodbye Mellow Yellow ~ plus confirmed 2010 info!

our favorite MY of all time: Mean Mr. Bean!

For 2010, Mellow Yellow and Nightfire Red gone, and Pure Silve is no longer available on the R56 Cooper S. However, a big favorite is that Dark Silver has been extended to the Cooper. There are lots of folks that will be happy about that. We had a feeling that Nightfire Red would go the way of all the other metallic reds, but the big surprise here is that Pure Silver is being restricted. Pure Silver has been around since 2002 though, so perhaps it is time for an update?

Other interesting news includes

• the MFSW becoming standard -yay!-
• LSD being deleted due to lack of interest  -boo!-
• The front seat memory function will be partially deleted. That means when you
  slide the seat back, only the seat base will go into its last position but the seatback will not. A
  comfortable default position has been established for it to always go back to.

A lot of this we expected, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t sad to see some of the options like LSD go away.  We are very excited to see if MINI will be introducing new colors, and WAY super excited about the upcoming special editions. Farewell to a favorite color- Mellow Yellow.  We will miss you!  (if you’d like to see more of Mean Mr. Bean, be sure to visit his site: http://meanmrbean.com/)
