Madonna buys MINI Cooper
Madonna has reportedly bought a sporty Mini Cooper.
The £20,000 electric blue car has a leather interior, 17in alloy wheels and a satellite navigation system.
And workers at the Cowley car plant in Oxfordshire gave it the personal touch by signing their names on the underside of the chassis.
A worker told The Sun: "We are all so proud that Madonna is such a big fan of the car.
"Everyone who worked on it left their signature, either inside or under the bonnet.
"If anyone doubted this was a classy car before, they can certainly think again now Madonna has bought one."
The star didn't visit the plant herself but ordered an aide to collect it for her.

Really! To read "Madonna" and "classy" in the same sentence is a hoot!

Over on Roadfly, MINIQUEEN posted a message saying that Whoopi Goldberg got an S, too! I think it's amusing!

Just to add to this thread.....
While at Hank Aaron MINI in Atlanta.....
I was told....(by a few people at the dealer) that the "Boss" Bruce Springsteen had been in for a test drive the week before....
Don't know if he purchased one but he drove the "S" that I took for a spin.

What a turncoat... who would think that Mr. All-America would drive anything except a large-block Chevy?

I was told that the director or producer (sorry, I forget) of "Harry Potter" also bought a pure silver, black top MINI. It's good that everyone wants one, but it sucks that the "rich and famous" probably don't have to wait for their custom MINI any longer than it takes them to sign the check. :???:
Just kidding Britney!

Yes, Bruce Springsteen was in town and salesman Jeff Nicholas drove him around for the day in a new Mini. The guys just received their signed copies of Springsteens new CD. (The "Boss" enjoyed the Cooper!).

Madonna got a Mini....well seeing all the directions that she has trended in....you know, Material Girl and then she was just a big ho for awhile and then she eventually started dressing like a gypsy and now she has that British accent (I thought she was from Detroit??) you never know how long she will actually drive her new Mini.....
I give it a few months until she packs it into her gigantic superstar garage and buys another car that she will drive for a few months....man it just must suck to have all the money in the world! :smile:

No two-bit hack celebrity will ever impress me by what they buy or have - When someone like Colin McRae buys a MINI I’ll be very impressed.
