Incredible Accessories for your MINI Cooper

The other day I was shocked to open my mailbox and find the newest copy of Moss Motors' 2002-2008 Mini Accessories Master Catalog. I had never heard of Moss Motors before, but now I'm a huge fan. There is literally EVERYTHING in here you could possibly need to trick out your MINI. And for those of you who aren't into pimping your MINI ride, they have great stock parts as well. They even have new stuff for the Clubman on their website: http://www.mossmini.com/.

You can get your own FREE copy of their latest MINI accessories catalog by clicking here.

Resolution 2008: Rent a MINI on my next vacation!

The first month of the new year has almost come to a close, which is a reminder to many of their new year's resolutions. Some people might want to eat better, work out more, work less, invest more, eat less, or call home more. Others might want to take a vacation sooner. And to those eager travelers, may I suggest a new resolution: Don't Rent Boring Cars On Vacation In '08.

Oahu is such a beautiful island, filled with scenic views, exotic foliage, and world-famous beaches. It is a shame to tarnish such an attractive vacation with an unattractive, boring rental car.

We, at Little Hawaii Car Rental Co., would like to help you keep this resolution by extending all of our January MINI Cooper rental specials through the end of February. These specials include $99/day 2-day rentals and $89/day 3-day rentals, which all include free delivery to your hotel and unlimited mileage. Our MINIs also arrive in a spectacular, detailed condition. To get these special prices, please call our reservation line at 808-347-2886.

Let's start the new year off on the right foot: the one that presses the gas pedal of a beautiful convertible MINI Cooper to the floor!

I'll trade you one of my MINIs for one of your........anything!

Our Hawaii MINI Cooper rentals are now available on trade to members of bartering networks around the world. We recently joined two bartering networks: PCX here on the island, and BizX on the west coast. Both companies have affiliates all around the world, so no matter what network you may be a part of, our MINIs are all revved up, ready for you to drop the top and drive away into the sunset.

Although we have been trading our services for only a few months, we have enjoyed both the professional services offered by these companies as well as the high caliber of customers they have referred to us. Tiki's Grill & Bar in Waikiki was our first PCX customer, purchasing gift certificates for their end-of-the-year party. Then no more than 24 hours after we received our welcome packet from BizX, Rich & Gloria cruised around sunny Oahu in a convertible MINI for 3 days using their BizX trade account.

One of our trade customers who is driving our Cooper cabrio for 6 days as I write this, came to Hawaii a year ago with a friend who paid for her entire vacation on trade. After her friend explained the bartering system to her, her exact words were "I've got to get on that!" And she did, and has traded her high-end hand-made jewelry for a week in paradise. Why isn't every small business owner part of a network like this? I have no idea.

So what do we spend our bartered currency on? You name it. But I can tell you what we DON'T spend it on: Hawaii vacations, obviously.

O Come All Ye Faithful MINI Fans in Georgia

Little Hawaii customers don't have to smell like gasoline

Little Hawaii Car Rental Co. has decided to add yet another free service to our arsenal of pamperings: free gas! OK, the gas isn't exactly free, but the service to put the gas in the car won't cost our customers a cent.

We used to charge customers the industry standard rate of 150% of the going gas price to fill up the tank at the end of a rental, which was discouraging to those not willing to pay over $5.00/gal for gas on vacation. So we decided to throw out the 150% policy. We now fill up the tank of our MINIs after the rental at no extra cost, and the exact price of the gasoline is simply charged to the customer's credit card on file.

While other Oahu car rental companies want you to wander around Waikiki's maze of one-way streets looking for a gas station, we think you should spend that time at the beach instead.
