Anyone seen the "tent option" at MINIUSA?

...Aztec wannabe...hmmm

 

L. Mini will get goosebumps if this is for real

 

It's on the website...I kid you not.

Not sure if it's actually available or just a "concept".

 

Pretty wild eh? All kinds of new stuff on the web site - supposed to be available in the September time frame.

 

I'm looking at the website ...... where is the tent?

here's some more info about MINI_Motion: MINI_Motion is Launched

Never mind ..... I found it. Pretty snappy!

Mini ....... Motion .......... Buzz

 

Okay, that's actually pretty cool. For those not into performance mods and into motoring for the sake of travel this diea works out pretty well. Though with the ground clearance you'll be 'MINI-tenting' on asphalt. Would be great for tail-gaters though - both kinds:

- Deploy the tent to enjoy a tail-gate picnic with family and friends
OR
- Deploy the tent on the freeway to rid yourself of that annoying tail-gater
(the tent deployment option could take up that missing toggle space - patent pending)

Love this Idea!

 

I wish I could find the tent option pic on the MINIUSA site. I've looked...

I wish L were online as she'd be absolutely all over this thread.

I love the "tent deploy" idea. Even better than trunk monkey.

 

I was lost as well, until I looked into Gear UP --> Mini Motion, under Buzz

Enjoy

Looks cool though, I gotta get me one of these!!

 

Thanks...now I see.

OMG.
A "common community area" ?

 

>>You know, there's a reason why this whole post modern design thing has already died... <<

Hear, hear. I quote:

"On an experimental level, the MINI_motion car and tent continues to explore the theme of seamless mobility from the car interior to the outside."

Give me a tent-deploying break...

 

A tent.....for a MINI. ooooooooooooo k.

What's next....MINI camping gear??? Yikes.

Those guys have flipped their collective lids.

 

Well I'm going camping this summer and need a test. Sure this would be very nice!, but if it's not in a well groomed area, it could be difficult to park your MINI where you want to camp

 

Does anyone remember the "pilot" to South Park when Cartman was abducted by aliens? That's the idea I get when I see that tent protruding out of the rump of the MINI. I am hoping this is just classic British sarcasm.

 

hehe Yup I remember that one very funny.
