Looks wild...some great driving and a few stunts. One heck of a MINI advertising campaign!

Hammer & Coop? Nice try on replicating the Knight Rider TV show from the early '80s. If they were trying to make this modern day version just as cheezy as "The adventures of Michael Knight (David Hasselhoff) and his incredible super-car K.I.T.T.," built by Knight Industries 2000, they did a good job. I can't wait to see future episodes.
OK, I'll go on a limb here and start the mud flinging.... was this necessary? I think the new '07 MINI could have been represented in a better light.

i think its a funny ad campaign, i give MINI props, def sticks out with the younger generation, me and my buds love seeing things like this, why do you think we love anchorman and the new starsky and hutch movie, this sort of puts a similar feel on.

also, anyone notice the Coop "body double" in the first episode when he busts out of the warehouse you cna see in all shots its an r53, same as when coop goes through the mirror in the next episode. you cna see in to make the body double less noticable MINI colored the high beams yellowto look like hte in headlamp mounted ones on the r56 and they gave a chrome lined arrow grille.

Its on a diet. Don't worry though, it still looks like a MINI dash.

I did not care for the new ad campaign. It does not inspire me to own the new car.

Well said. I think the MINI has far more class than the ad campaign gives it. The ad agency that defected to VW obviously is doing a great job for VW and is missed by MINI/BMW.
