Just read on another site that MINI might not put the extra small Rocketman into production! I really hope they change their mind. It would be too hard to find an old Mini and find parts for it so this was my second choice and besides, it'd be fun to see one next to my "extra-long" Clubman!

 

This post should be moved to General MINI talk forum.

 

thank god I hope they don't make it. Id rather have the Mini Beachcomber.

 

I'm really kind of bummed out. I've already got the wife convinced to take over the Clubbie when we pay off her car (in about a year-and-a-half) and I was going to look into getting one of those. I think that a MINI that was closer to the size of the original would be a blast! I guess I'll just bide my time and see what develops.....

 

I think something along these lines will come to pass, although it will be somewhat different than the Rocketman concept.

 

I hope that you are right. I'm really looking forward to paying her car off now! Shoot, I might try to pay it off early! Don't get me wrong, I love my Clubman, but I had a ride years ago in a Classic and can't get it out of my mind how much fun it was. I think a JCW Rocketman-like sized MINI would be the ultimate go-cart experience!
