Is this MINI the world's most expensive mirror?

[fingers]

Sure Adrian Flux would cover it.

Balls they cant find cover, just too stupid to find cover more like...

I think this will cost more than polished mini. A polished mirrored Lamborghini

i've seen a chrome plated sierra rs500 before :shock: matt black bonnet and mirrors/bodykit/whaletail spoiler

looked cracking

If i remember Top Gear mag had 3 Bugattes and one of them was mirrored. The cars must be nightmare at night for on coming cars lights will reflect and blind them :shock:

Theres nothing new in this world, not the Bini and not a chromed version.

Here's the retro version, a design piece done by David Bowey for the originals mini 40th Birthday, there were some others done by Paul Smith, Michael Caine and Kate Moss

I don't know about you, but I can't get excited about the new, Austin Maestro sized Mini. I'm sure it's better than the original, but it isn't nearly as cool.

i'm not a fan of the old mini but the new mini is justr aweful.

made me chuckle "Without options, the list price for a MINI Cooper S is £17,000 - meaning the value of the chrome paintjob could be more than the car itself."

they think its added value to the car! dont think so

each to their own but theres no denying its place in motoring history or design.

i agree. i used to like them until i owned one. in some respects it was the best car i have ever had. it had been fully restored by the previous owner, it gleamed in the sun and looked amazing. filled with water when it rained though. i found the handling terrible, the brakes aweful, the suspension noin existent and it was sooo slooooow.

i know they can be made to handkle and go fast but its all a compromise.

i'm a vw man personally. ev eryone knows how fast, comfortable and safe a beetle is

I remember Audi doing a showcar for one of the motorshows some years ago, which had a mirror finish like this...

...And I also remeber quite clearly that it wasn't road legal in the UK because of it. Don't ask me why, it's just one of those silly things I have remembered....

The Audi A8 and 50 Cent's Lambo are both painted.
