The Italian designers have made MINI skin transplantation
When the director of public relations of Swiss division MINI Claudine Hatebur de Calderón has learned that in a place of Zurich-Oerlikon will take place exhibition called New Spaces, she has decided to expose there something especial. As she said, it should be the slice of art that would touch visitors.
Then the lovely lady has addressed to the Italian design studio Bisazza, and local geniuses have realized her plan. They took ordinary MINI Cooper and “have sheathed” it with cow skin. From Bisazza it has been required in total five cow skins!
According to authors of this work, it has been most difficult to combine smooth transitions of a skin with sharp sides of body MINI. Only imagine that it would be impossible to these guys to dress in the same way angular Lamborghini!
As a result the strange being with the account of the sizes can be called the calf on wheels has turned out. Having seen this, defenders of animals for certain will be indignant (if they have not done this already), but founders of Pet Mini, it is called this way, has to be praised for the radical and non-conventional approach of tuning of this nice machine.
Mini Clubman Cooper D
Numbers of buyers of Mini grow - and together with them their favorite car grows. Tremendous new Clubman has left on roads of England, and we have tried to be the first to sweep on it.
Having revived a name, it has appeared for the first time in 60-s, Clubman stylish and at the same time old favorite Mini, has again appeared on sale in November. We have been always surprised to a leader Copper S, its unique lack is only its price. So maybe Copper D will beat it?
Clubman has incorporated classical style of Mini, with the same contours of a body and ideas which have been pleasant to everyone in Cooper.
But this time, there have appeared double doors behind in a style of a minivan which open on 90 degrees on gas racks. Because of increased length (24cm more) now it has become more spacious behind.
Certainly, it is not a family car and not a truck, but it is big enough. Volume of a luggage carrier is 260 liters with the lifted back seats, and 930 - with combined. So, Clubman will easily cope with luggage of two passengers.
One moment which is not absolutely clear - ’suicide’ a door from the driver’s side, so that it will be more convenient for passengers to sit back. We generally consider it unsafe, especially for children.
On roads Cooper D receives the higher mark.
Controllability is shaking. The superfluous length has been Mini obviously on advantage and has increased stability. The wheel allows feel road perfectly.
MINI Clubman is criticized by Englishmen and Australians
New universal MINI Clubman which has already started to accept orders of automobile dealers can appear unpopular in England, Australia and other countries with left sided movement. As writes “Just Auto”, the reason of it is in an arrangement of the additional lateral door which is on the right even in cars equipped with the right wheel. The passengers using this “semi-door” at landing and leaving have to go out on a road but it can be dangerous. The Australian ministry of transport has already expressed doubts concerning safety of conclusion of Clubman on the markets of the “right-hand drive” countries.
Markus Siring, the main designer of MINI Clubman, has commented on this message so: «the Decision to make an additional door on the right has been dictated by the objective reasons. On a left-hand side symmetrically to it is a petrol tank mouth, and to transfer it back, for an arch of a back wheel, the legislation has not allowed: in the USA such arrangement is forbidden, as it increases risk of a fire at collision behind».
