R53 Profile Line Drawing

Don't know if anyone has posted something like this before, but here is a line drawing of an R53 profile. So for all you mad artists out there with mod ideas spilling out of your head, grab a crayon/colored pencil (old school!) and have some fun.

Gotta start somewhere right?

It's embarrasing to admit, but PowerPoint. :impatient I wasn't looking for CAD/CAM accuracy.

D^mn Sid. That is a sweet blue-print. Too bad it is not the R53.

It looks like some sort of human factors/ergonomic study. You've got cartoon passengers (dude in the back looks comfy) and a shifter in multiple positions. And without more detail of the exterior (especially the headlights), it sure doesn't look like a MINI.

It looks like the figure in the back has its knees through the back of the front seats.
