I was playing around with the robot configurator on the MINI-USA website when I noticed that they had made an error.

When I chose to build an MCS robot, it did not have a supercharger. Both the MCS and the Cooper versions of the robots had the same naturally aspirated engine!!!

Since this is an obvious and terrible oversight on the part of MINI, I send a silly email to them to inform them of their mistake.

Today, the Fed-Ex guy showed up with a big box with a free silver robot!

Thanks MINI-USA !

 

Too bad they didn't send you a free MCS

Nope, no free MCS. . . .

but they are sending us a new Cooper in October but I don't think they are going to outright give it to us!

 

that's cool that they sent you a robot like that.

don't get it wet or feed it after midnight...

 

Better yet, don't take it out of the box because they are very flimsy and break very easy. Besides, ti will be worth BIG bucks if you leave it in the package for a few years.

 

Wow - that's awesome!!! How lucky you are....:smile:

Well....are they going to mod the MCS robot's engine?

WTG Yucca. I'll have to check it out next time I'm up there.

 

Now why I didn't get any thing from MINI-USA........
From Dec 19, 2004 till now and still no gift...............
