SKATEBOARDS OR SNOWGLOBES, TIMEPIECES OR TRAVEL BAGS

All the best gifts come small, so get something 'MINI' for the motorist in your
life.

Woodcliff Lake, NJ - November 10th, 2003 ... If you are looking for a gift with
a twist for the motorists in your life then take a look at the MINI
MotoringGear collection at www.minimotoringgear.com

Prices start at under $8 and range to over $300. So, whether you love someone
just a little or a heck of a lot, show your love by giving MINI gifts that
include the interesting, the unusual and the downright desirable. Highlights
include:

$39.50 - a limited edition MINI Snowglobe. This might be the only thing more
appealing than a real MINI: a 1:87 model set in a canyon scene - in a glass
sphere - underwater. With sprinkles.

$39.99. If the holiday turkey leaves you feeling too stuffed to actually get
out and drive your MINI, then get the next best thing, the Italian Job PS2 and
XBOX Games.

$90. Home for the holidays? MINI's Hybrid Roller is made by Samsonite. This
unique roller, in black, grey and orange will make sure you stand out from the
airport crowd.

$127. Burn off those holiday calories with a MINI Skateboard, complete with
MINI's distinctive checkerboard roof.

$160. So that you'll never be late for the party and have a conversation
piece when you get there - the cleanly designed, award wining MINI Chronograph
Watches come with a sprung steel core wristband. Women's watch in pale blue,
Men's in cosmo blue.
