Yes that’s right…my dirty little MINI went and got herself some back door action, shame on her! Well, I can’t say it was entirely her fault.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you backed your MINI into a gigantic trailer hitch? ME NEITHER but I found out one evening when the Fireballed race trailer decided to jump right in the way when I was backing up. You know…kind of like what trees do really late at night when you start to get sleepy and tired of driving. Those enormous stationary objects sure are tricky. This is not the first time for my poor MINI. We were in LA one time before (back when she was still green) when some (cough) unnamed fellow backed her into a key fob at an apartment building. I suppose I was to blame on that one too with the “Hey what’s that!” comment which was not referring to the object that proceeded to bugger my car. She has since been stripped like Paris Hilton and put back together like something out of a B-rated horror movie. This just goes to show that every day I earn my nickname more and more, for those of you who tell me I should change it, “they don’t call me Stoopid for Nothin!”
300 something dollars later and the hard part is over
Here Be the perpetrator (or should I say perpetrailer)
Here be the results
Here be the Tuls oh so happy about cleaning up me mess...arrr
Anyone notice the crazy amount of Arizona dirt stuck under my trim?! I was saving it for a special occasion! LOL maybe I'll make a sand castle
OUCH!! sorry to hear that... I was on my dirt bike once and a tree jumped out of nowhere and hit me... damn those stationary objects

I think the trailer has had its wrath on your MINI(pink slip) being that it does carry the M600(ts best friend), I think the trailer was out to get you, I herd it talking on MTTS and it wanted to back door your MINI for some time now.LOL
Does this mean a MINI FINI sport link will now be born???
Owwiiieee.... those darn trailers are always out to get vehicles... my dad's tailgate got violated once when he was trying to hook up the trailer and forgot to let the tailgate down.... whoops.... I hope your purty girl gets better real soon... and give her a bubble bath sometime, huh?
You should have just drove off with the trailer hanging out your window.
I ran in to a tree once, late at night after some serious Tequila. Thing was I wasn't even driving - I was walking down the sidewalk and the damn tree tried to rape my face. Evil!

To Funny! !! Evil trees......
Yes the stationary objects are the tricky ones to miss, I can usually aviod the moving ones....
I thought the busted glass below the skull and crossbones looked kinda cool!
But then, I'm the guy who gets down on the ground to photopgraph freakin' tarantulas!

OUCH.....that is pretty rough sex..... was it their magnatism or animal/mechanical instincs.....I mean let's face it they are around each other a lot and this "tension" has probably been building and needed release......it's just natural....was any protection used? is the any "Minis gone wild" video......
I'm sure Tuls took it in stride......
My best to both of you...

I think your car will go faster now, without a rear windshield.
It causes a reverse negative vortex, and a corresponding postive ion field, which slightly bends space-time, (in your favor, of course). So now would be the time to learn how to drag race...

Too bad you removed the broken glass, EM. You could have run some 8" diameter black flex hose from under the bonnet and vented all that engine heat out the back window= faster MINI!
Ouch! That definately hurt.....but you wanted to collect some of that dirt from under the window seal anyways did ya?
