New Game - find the typos

Hi. This is guaranteed to embarrass some proof-readers in the MINI organization. Our mission - find typos and obvious errors in MINI literature. I'll start. In the recently released, fancy, 88 page marketing booklet for the new models look at page 77: "Park Distance Control (PDC) at the rear makes it easier to park and maneuver is not caps in tight spaces." (Underlined words were probably an editor's note that some typesetter mistakenly thought were to be included as text.)

Your turn.

Typos are one of my pet pieves. (did i spell that right? lol)

But I'd be careful what you say to other NAM members. I once hinted to a member that they used an incorrect spelling of the work "there." The others in the thread were saying "back off" and "don't embarass him" and stuff like that. I only hinted the typo AND I answered the origonal question.
