Oh no indeed. I first viewed that at work where my PC doesn't have sound. I thought it was the mouse pointer turning into Tigger which was the "feature". Just played it again at home and whilst I can't get the Tigger mouse effect (doesn't work on this computer) I now hear the music. ITS AWFULLLLL !

I've got a spare ash-tray lid/cover sitting in my garage. Don't know where it came from, but Rover deleted that rear ash-tray during the 1980's.

No music thankfully, but I did get the irritating cursor !!! Ashtrays ...........those damned things never stay in the floor do they ? As soon as you start unloading your car, it twangs off somewhere, never to be seen again.
Hey I have an idea. Seen Grumpy old men and Grumpy old Women ? Maybe now it is time for Grumpy old Minis, where we blah on about the flying ashtrays and other things Mini related that really make us grumpy.

....'would make a very good car'..... Really?? If you did what?? Would it even make a car at all? Still, perhaps it's us who are wrong. Someone seems to have bid over £100 already (and it must be worth something for spares alone to be fair). But I see the reserve has not been met!!!
I don't think I'd have the nerve to advertise it AND put a reserve on it too
Tasteful ad though isn't it . Shame they hadn't put such imagination into the restoration - then we'd really have something to talk about.....
As we've said before, it takes all sorts and taste is just a matter of opinion. Apparantly.

I see the answer has been posted - apparently the log book states Mini Cooper Clubman Estate - from what they can remember - how lucky that the log book has gone missing 
The only person likely to bid on that is Patrick

Without doubt that central rear ashtray was the most useless and annoying item ever fitted to a Mini - probably 
Norton, got any of that pink emulsion left? If you really can't stand the FY, I'll have to change colour

tell you what..... it wasn't nice searching for it.......
I tried doing a search on "gay mini" on ebay.... not nice!***
I think perhaps we'll call this one a draw! I don't feel too well now!
***I take no responsibility if you decide to do this for yourself!!
