MINI limo

This picture was sent to us from a friend who lives in Vegas. Not sure if it has anything to DO with Vegas, but it's neat nonetheless.

I bet this MINI has better cupholders! I'd also want another sunroof for the farthest back motorers.

See this post regarding problem with linking to Yahoo Photos. I would recommend either uploading the pic to your NAM gallery OR uploading it as an attachment.

To me it looks like a p-Shop'd. Ask your friend where they took the picture. Ask them for other angles.

That's not very MINI sized.

How is it gonna fit in my garage?
Gotta build an extra long "ultimate" garage for that beast.

I wonder how to get that limo up on a lift? You'd need a walk under pit to reach the underside.

Oh, interesting...such a drab backdrop made it look fake.

I do like the two-headed MINI better though... :smile:

Will the double-ended MINI give you a bi-directional burnout?

I know this may be reviving an old thread but does anyone know where this car currently? I'll be in Las Vegas this July and my wife and I want to renew vows/wedding, etc. (I know, Hokey) and the thought of a regular limo just won't do! So . . . it's either a MINI limo or horses. Help please.:smile:

Yeah, for the sake of planning I'd go w/ the horses. Who knows where that MINI limo is...and I doubt if it's for hire even if it's in the US at all. The limo was probably just one of those things that "just had to be done"...hopefully it will remain a one-off. If limos are about elegance and prestige, the MINI limo just doesn't fit w/ that vibe very well. My opinion....:smile:

Real MINI Limo!



Here is YuccaPatrol's MINI decked out as a bridal limo for his wedding to Elizabeth today in Destin, Florida! sndwave and I decorated it yesterday, and I used white tulle as a shelby center stripe, satin ribbon printed with "our wedding" as the pinstripes, and a big fat white bow just above the S-scoop! We found a "Just Married" flag and modified it to fit onto the antenna!
