Incredibly MINI: De nieuwe MINI nu ook in miniatuur 1:18, 1:43 en 1:87 schaalmodellen.

Munich. The second generation of the MINI is hitting the streets right now. The
entire vehicle has been redesigned and many of its characteristic details
refined. Yet the MINI will remain absolutely unmistakeable. Even in miniature
format. The high-quality miniatures of the MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S are
complete with every detail of the evolutionarily-modified bodywork design and
will thus become an absolute must-have for all collectors and MINI enthusiasts.

"From the original to the original" - that was the principle during the
development of the external design of the new edition of the MINI. The results
are impressive. All of the characteristic features that are not just classic
but also typical of the modern MINI, are expressed with even more passion in
the new MINI.

In the miniature versions, the new MINI's logically developed design and fresh
look are reproduced with total fidelity, right down to the tiniest detail, The
new hexagonal cooler grille and the characteristic, large round headlights
communicate the irresistible charm of the full-scale model even in the
1:18-scale version. The high-quality miniature, made from injection-moulded
zinc and plastic parts, also offers plenty of surprises in the form of
countless fascinating details. The bonnet, boot, doors and sunroof can all be
opened, offering an interesting glimpse into the completely-renovated interior
of the MINI. The wheels can be turned and even the steering mechanism works.
The attractive colours of the painstakingly-designed 1:18 miniatures are also
typically MINI: the MINI Cooper comes in Chili Red and - as a special homage to
the its British origins - in Lightning Blue also as a right-hand-drive version.
The MINI Cooper S is available in the exclusive colours Laser Blue and Dark
Silver.

The 1:43 scale miniature earns a special place in the window: the perfect
replica model made from injection-moulded zinc and plastic parts is mounted on
a black display box that is absolutely ideal for presentation purposes. The
turning wheels and opening bonnet communicate that authentic MINI feeling. The
colours are real eye-catchers too: Chili Red and Astro Black for the MINI
Cooper model, and Laser Blue and Pepper White for the MINI
Cooper S.

The small format conceals big style, especially in the case of the
faithfully-reproduced plastic miniature in 1:87 scale. The wheels of all model
versions are turnable - both on the MINI Cooper in Chili Red or Pure Silver and
on the MINI Cooper S in Laser Blue or Chili Red. To optimise presentation, the
miniature is also mounted on a black display box.

The miniature editions of the new MINI are available from selected MINI dealers
and via the Internet at www.MINI.com/shop.
