A day for Fiat 500 to get together

The cute little car Fiat 500 was first introduced by Fiat in July 1957 as the Nuova (means new in Italian). It was designed by Dante Giacosa. With only ~10 feet long and ~4+ feet wide, it is a very practical car to be used in town because it doesn’t require a powerful engine. The Fiat 500 is originally powered by a highly fuel saving 479 cc two-cylinder engine, giving a very decent horse power to bring four adults from one place to another. The outlook of this 2-door car is cute with chubby face. Owners do not have to worry about carrying large item because it has a full-length sunroof where large item can be carried by the car easily.

Cute cars, cute girls.

Cute cars, hot girls.

That’s Sexy! Both cars and girls.

These pictures are shared by Amendola Massimo from Italy. It was a huge gathering for all the Fiat 500 to get together. There are some Ferraris join the crowd too!

Marco’s 1992 Mini British Open

The Mini featured here today is Marco Diomedi’s MK6 1992 Mini British Open fromItaly. The car is painted in a notable British Racing Green with two silver stripes on the bonnet. A look from the front, the most eye-catching is the four spotlights with Union Flag and the chrome stone guard fitted to protect the headlamp. A look from the side, Diomedi added a few custom decals to make the car look unique other than the original coachlines with “British Open Classic” decals and coat of arms. Wheels are still the original 12-inch Minilite.

The Mini British Open Classic was introduced in 1992. It is one of Rover’s finest and rarest Mini in MK6 generation because there is only 1,000 units were produced for theU.K.market. The car is powered by a 1.3i engine and featured a full length electrical folding sunroof. The original price was £7,195.

Do notice the registration plate, it is normal inItalybut it is funny if someone reads it out loud in “Hokkien” language, “Ah – Ma!” (Means “My Grandmother”)

Happy Birthday Marco Diomedi! We believe the best birthday present is to share some of your lovely yet cute Mini photos here at Malaysiaminilover.

This is how you bring a car into your room

Don’t you think only people who crazy about cars will keep their cars in their living room? The MG Midget in the photos is obviously well pampered by its owner. It has a special room and the owner put it inside the house. The car will definitely clean because it stays away from any dust and the room probably equipped with air-conditioning. In order to bring the car into the room, there is a huge price to pay. The room is located at second floor in a building that doesn’t have a huge entrance. The car has to go through some really hardcore ways to go into its room through the extremely slim window without scratching the car body. See how these professionals do their job, you will feel amazing!

Can you believe they are bringing the car through this window?

Notice that the engine has been removed from the car to reduce its weight?

Well, it has to go in “Sleep Way”.

Ready to go!

Most people have their cars kept in garage when they are not in use. Car collectors who collect unique and special cars often have special place to store them and preserve them just like the world’s most desirable garage.

Things you can do with used car parts

Everyone knows cars are made out of high quality steels and materials especially car body, engines, and some major mechanical parts. Used car parts are often sold to recycle factory whenever they are not functioning anymore. However, there are some creative people out there make good use of used car parts and turn them into really useful yet practical things in our life. I wouldn’t sell my four-cylinder engine for just $30 dollars if I have seen these photos before.

Need a coffee shop but rentals are too high? Why not do this?

Jimmy is enjoying barbeque at his garden. His dad came out of sudden and ask “Anyone seen my BBS wheel?”

Couldn’t find a suitable table from furniture store? Why not try this?

You will never waste a V8 engine because it has eight cylinder. Good for wine storage!

What about a nice and attractive sofa from the classic Volkswagen Beetle?

Most Mini enthusiasts love round-nose more than Mini Clubman, so this guy from has turned his Clubman into his office desk!

V8 engine is one of the most powerful and most expensive to buy. So don’t waste it! Turn the piston into a cup holder. Some people treat used car parts as rubbish while some turn them into really nice stuffs.

This is a good pool table that you don’t find it else where. Why? The pool table is with an engine!

If you don’t like Volkswagen Combi pool table, you may use Ford Mustang to make one.

Volkswagen van can sometime turn into a bar too.

A really nice Mini Cooper office table.
