The Mini Cooper Rental Portal is the official source for finding Mini Cooper rentals anywhere in the world. Have you ever wanted to rent a Mini on a vacation, but weren't in the mood to call every rental car company in the area to find out who had one? Well, they guys over at MCRP have done all the work for you. Just type in a city anywhere in the world, and if there are Mini rentals there, it will be listed. You can also scroll their list of cities on the left side of the site.
Each Mini rental company's blog post on MCRP lists their contact info, pricing, and available Minis. There are even some posts that have customer reviews and special pricing for MCRP visitors. And don't expect to just read some boring post with a few mundane company specs; MCRP has a few witty, even funny, posts. I actually sat there and searched quite a few cities and just to read what they wrote. It also got me thinking about how I really need to take a vacation back to the mainland.
Obviously, we're listed at the Mini Cooper rental company for Oahu, Hawaii, and appreciate the traffic MCRP has sent us the past few months. We believe they're doing the Mini-lovin' community a huge favor by rescuing vacationers from the doldrums of boring vacation car rentals! Thanks guys.

Crazy MINI Cooper Ads from around the world
Full Collection of Crazy Mini Ads � Marketallica
I sure enjoy seeing the creative MINI Cooper ads around town here in Honolulu, but they're nothing compared to some of the ads I found on Marketallica's blog in the link above. Check them out for a few good laughs, as well as possibly for some good marketing ideas!
My favorite is the "COPS HIDE HERE" sign. Any of you who have rented a MINI from us here at Little Hawaii Car Rental Co. and have motored around Oahu know we could use a few of those signs. They sure would reduce the cost of vacationing for a few of our old customers!

Electric Mini: 0-60 in 4 Seconds: It Has Motors In Its Wheels : TreeHugger
Electric Mini: 0-60 in 4 Seconds: It Has Motors In Its Wheels : TreeHugger
I didn't believe this article from treehugger.com at first, either. An electric Mini? 4.5 seconds to get to 60 mph? 150 mph?! Yeah right.
But its true.
The only thing I'd like to see now is one of these electric conversions on a '63 Austin Mini. And then I'd like to see that person call me and let me drive it! Seriously. 808-347-2886.

This Mini video almost made me cry
When we started our MINI rental company out here in Hawaii earlier this year, we wanted our initial fleet to consist of 2 MINI cabrios and 1 classic Austin Mini. However, because of insurance reasons, we had to get a Cooper S hardtop instead (which is still an incredible drive!). Then today I find this nostalgic video on http://www.motoringfun.com/, and almost needed a tissue. At the end of the video, we swore to add a classic Austin Mini to our fleet by the end of next year.
So find your box of tissues, turn up your volume, and check out the video
