I love seeing those and the best part is always getting free Red Bull when you do see them. When I go to the Canadian GP, I usually see them every day and we each get a couple of cans so then we don't need to buy it at the the track at $5 per can.

If I had one, I'd rebadge the can of Red Bull as Whoopass.

I saw one in Monterey about a month ago.
Not the first 'moving MINI billboard' I've seen.
I think its terrible.
The Scions that look like toasters on wheels
have ads all over them all the time. I don't
want MINI compared to that.
It makes it into some trendy car. Kind of
loses the magic if you ask me...
and good GOD they could have picked a better
beverage!!!

Saw one this evening at local car show here in OC....








The jury is still out on my opinion - its either uber cool or a waste of a MC ????

I saw one of those before, but i didnt realize at first that it was a MINI, because it had a section of the back cut out, and MaxN what city are you in? it looks strangely familiar

There's one of these about 5 mins from my house in some storage facility outside. I've never seen it move.
