The R56s are coming!

I found these images from a German forum and would like to share.

I'm pretty sure that those train pics were posted on motoringfile awhile back. I haven't seen the other ones, though, nice find

Yep, these pics have been around a while, the first pic is a good comparison shot with a blue R56 and a yellow R56 above a BRG R50 and an RG R50, all on the same train.

...for the record, the photos were shot by NewMINIclub.nl members Karretje and sMARTmINi on September 9 before they were chased away by police.

The MINIs are coming! The MINIs are coming! (or should I say the British are coming ... I feel like Paul Revere ).

Wow! Looking at the pics of all those MINIs on the train cars makes me feel as if an invasion is about to take place! Turn these little guys loose on the world and soon it will become a MINI planet! Bwah -ha-ha-ha!

Thanks for the pics aznqtboy984 (and kudos also to NewMINIclub.nl members Karretje and sMARTmINi for taking them)!

Almost like the clone deployment in Star Wars Ep II, LOL (of course I am sure each car is unique and not a clone, but still - very cool!)
