I once built a trailer for a mates ride on mower so he could take the esky when he mowed the lawn (BIG lawn) , he didn't like the 6 pack getting warm and his wife wouldn't let him tramp through the house to the fridge 6 times while mowing . (Best bit was , you could always tell which side he started on and which side he did last by the bits he missed ......) Maybe you could do a mini back esky trailer to tow behind your's , then you wouldn't need as many cup holders in the front ?

Get an old CD ROM drive and install it in your mdf dashboard. Put power to it, just so it will open and close.

who needs cup holders anyway when you have 850 sliding window doors you can fit 8 longnecks in either pocket

lol im still laughing at the "cd powerd cup holder" that has such wank factor. i like having pretty much no technology in my mini, sure i have a cd player and a couple of speakers but im not interested in power windows, central locking etc..... im a fan of simplicity.
nothing against people who want everything in their mini, but what do you guys think

I'd have electric windows and the central in the deluxe, to simplify the look of it.
None of those complicated levers or handles for me!
