Here in the Northeast, there is a new Friendly's restaurant TV commercial that shows a LY/W MINI pulling into a parking space. Looks just like mine! And I do frequent Friendly's. Hmmmmm, I wonder........should I be getting royalties? :lol:

There is a tire TV commercial that has a bunch of silver cars on lifts with people beating drums and dancing... one of the cars is a MCS.

Target using MINI in today's insert.
Not sure how they plan on fitting the cases in the back. I guess the kid goes inside the biggest case... :wink:

shoot, you beat me to that one:smile: . I was thinking the same thing.

No sweat...
 
Simple. Kid in the passenger seat, back seats down. No problem. Could probably be done w/ one seat down as well.

You'd be surprised just how much will fit.
