Nice, unique and special customized Mini interior

The interior of a Mini is started with just a simple speedometer with odometer in the center. It was then added with temperature gauge and oil pressure gauge at both sides. Minis from MK4 generation and above received three binnacle meters and cars exported to Japanese market are added with air-condition. It has become more and more complicated especially MK7 but the size of the car remained the same.

Mini is a small car just like a sparrow but it is complete with all its internal organs intact – small but comprehensive. Thousands of Mini lovers have created millions of ideas to beautify the exterior as well as interior of this small car. Photos shared here are some customized Mini interior which you don’t often see it. It is no longer just a simple speedometer in the middle or the late model dashboard. If you get bored with the ordinary Mini interior or looking for ideas to build a unique interior, the photos shared here may give you some brand new ideas.

Look at that interior! Do you believe that is actually a car made before 2000? The car is more than ten years old but it is fully equipped with the latest technology. Do you see the electronic buttons at both front seats? This set up definitely deserve tripe thumbs up!

This interior looks clean and nice. Cream white dashboard and center console with air-condition blower make the cabin looks bigger.

This red/black interior is for Mini owners who prefer a luxury interior. A walnut dashboard with three magnolia binnacle in the center, red high quality leather seat, and a nice leather armrest.

Now this is something really special and unique. You no longer see the original Mini door handle set. It’s hanky pinky!

Simple, nice, and clean design.

For grey lovers!

Cream white leather seat match with dark-color walnut dashboard and chrome door handles.

Okay, finally you see something really unique and find it no where else.

Hot and Spicy Chili Red Mini Cooper

This is a 1995 Mini Cooper. The car was recently repainted in chili red, the color of the hottest heat. Now it’s even dazzling with chrome wiper, body-colour matched wide wheel arches, 13-inch Sportspack wheels, two strong and bright front spotlights, and the iconic white bonnet stripes. Well, look at the photos again and it could be nicer with chrome washer set as well as windscreen chrome fillet. The design of this car is common in classic Mini world but it often wins a lot of flashlights from camera in any Mini events, convoy, or gathering.

A different way to fix the door to your Mini

If you feel boring with the ordinary way to open your car door, why not try something like this? This Mini (probably a MK5) is spotted in the UK during a car event. Everything looks normal except the MK1 door hinges is fitted the other way round. It catches a lot of flashlights from different cameras because the yellow door looks a little bit odd. Well, at lease it is something special. DO try this at home.

Mini rollover, eat some mud, and back on road again

Before the rollover crash

A red color Mini had a rollover accident during a classic Mini convoy from Kuala Lumpurto Pahang last year. The driver is believed lose control and leave the roadway and crashed in the canyon that is about three meters deep. He did not get pinned in the car and he is managed to get out from the car. A tow truck was there to tow the car out from the mud. No injuries occurred as a result of the accident.

As for the poor red Mini, it received some dents on the body as well as front bumper and the left rear side windscreen was broken. Other than that, no major damage except it’s all covered with mud especially the left door panel. Thanks to the strong engine sump guard, the engine did not damage at all. Stainless steel Aston fuel cap locked the petrol tank tight too. The car just start after it is being “landed” again.

Owner of the red Mini drove the car few hundred miles again after the incident. Now that’s the spirit of Malaysia Mini Drivers! The rest of the story can be read from the 14 photos shared here taken from Rudy Harris.
