MINI Calendar 2011The MINI Calendar for 2011 is the work of Hamburg artist and graphic designer Wolfgang Block. “Transformation and Crossover” is the basic idea behind each month's image. The artist blends differing techniques – such as Rorschach, graffiti and pop art – in a personal interpretation of the collision between fantasy and reality in the MINI Accessories world. It‟s enough to turn any bare wall into an eye-catching canvas.
MINI Cuckoo ClockThis cult timepiece comes in a classic chrome look and has an original MINI speedometer-style dial. At the strike of each hour the garage on the underside opens its doors and a detailed miniature MINI moves around the dial, accompanied by faithfully reproduced MINI engine and horn sounds. A small photo sensor enables the clock to distinguish between day and night, and therefore ensure a peaceful night's sleep.
MINI USB StickThis elegant USB stick borrows the unmistakable design of the MINI ignition key and features a handy neck strap. With 8 GB storage capacity it offers ample accommodation for Christmas photos and the like.
THE BEST GIFTS FOR HERMINI Rooftop Cabin TrolleyFor anyone heading for faraway places, MINI has the perfect travelling companion. The robust MINI hardshell suitcases from the Rooftop line can take anything you throw at them. The Rooftop Cabin Trolley, for example, represents a stylish and reliable means of carrying your kit. Decked out in either the Union Jack or racing stripes, it has an extending telescopic handle, two strong carry handles and smooth-running wheels. The main compartment is fitted with packing belts and a divider, while the centre section has two small side pockets. Also provided are a protective transportation cover, an integrated lock and a nameplate to help the trolley find its way home should – perish the thought – owner and case become separated.
MINI Black Jack BriefcaseThe design of the extensive Black Jack luggage line from MINI stands out with its classy black finish and tone-in-tone Union Jack motif. The Black Jack Briefcase ensures you have everything you need for a day at the office. It boasts a clever inner compartment system with pockets for a mobile phone, pens and business cards, and your laptop slides away securely into a separate padded compartment. The briefcase can be fixed easily to the trolley's telescopic handle with the help of the slide-in pocket on its reverse side.
MINI Countryman BootsShould the inevitable happen and the long awaited white Christmas fail to materialise, the MINI Countryman Boots will keep your feet dry amid the mud and rain. With their Union Jack motif, rock-style print and Countryman badge, the black unisex wellies make a stylish statement, as well as a fine Christmas gift. The British flag also crops up on the inside of the boots.
MINI Badges Lapeer HatIts snug fake fur lining makes the trapper-style MINI Badges Lapeer Hat a good bet for warm ears during the chillier times of year. Badges on the “dog ears” provide the de rigueur vintage look. On warmer days, the ear flaps can be neatly folded up and fixed to the top of the head section.
MINI Pop Style UmbrellaFashion meets pop art as „Pop Style‟ series accessories in contrasting shades – from radiant yellow to electric blue – recall classic Andy Warhol creations. This bright and colourful brolly opens and closes auto-matically, and lightens the mood on grey days. The design of the handle takes its cue from the MINI gear selector.
THE BEST GIFTS FOR THE YOUNGSTERSMINI Snow RockerThe hot-heeled Snow Rocker toboggan from MINI is destined to give both kids and adults hours of sliding fun. Made from robust and ultra-slick material, the Snow Rocker is suitable for all snow conditions. Measuring 66 cm long and weighing just 2,500 grams, the toboggan is easy to steer through slight shifts in weight. A Union Jack print and racing stripes on the seat surface ensures it attracts envious glances on any sledge run.
MINI Baby RacerThe Baby Racer brings the hallmark MINI driving fun to fledgling drivers aged 1 to 3. The design of the red push-car combines high levels of safety, impressive quality and an eye for detail – from the MINI style front and rear lights to its modern wheel rim design and the original MINI colour shade Chili Red. The wide plastic wheels ensure a quiet ride, without leaving marks on parquet floors, so budding drivers can set off on their first few laps around the Christmas tree without ado.
MINI Cooper S ConvertibleDads will also be tempted to take this blue, single-seat model – for car fans aged between 3 and 5 – out for a spin. The sporty pedal-drive system ensures impressive output potential, but for those looking for a more leisurely experience, there‟s also a motorised version. Special rubber tyres help to minimise “road roar” and ensure stress-free indoor use.
MINI Baby Rocker Newborn SetAfter nine months on tour, you‟re crying out for style. So this ultra-soft set of romper suit and bib makes the perfect gift for all MINI rockers aged 6 to 12 months. The neutral grey will suit both boys and girls, and guarantees the littl'uns will make a big impression.
MINI Bulldog Soft ToyWith his MINI collar and black dog shirt, the furry MINI bulldog will melt the heart of any animal lover. Kids will take the four-legged charmer with the cute nose straight to their hearts, while grown-up MINI fans will surely agree that this dog is not just for Christmas.
