Very nice Cooper on display in Maxwell Motors showroom in Blacrock.

Re: Seen a Mini?
Did anyone else see a black mini with a whole pig (dead) strapped to the roof on the Malahide Road in Dublin on Saturday morning? I was passing in my mini and was going to flash my lights, but was so taken aback by the huge carcass on the roof that I didn't!
Also saw lovely metallic turquoise mini at the junction of Rathgar Road and Orwell Rd in Rathgar this morning.

Re: Seen a Mini?
are we certain the pig was dead? maybe it was cadging a lift home after an all night party? I wouldn't put a pig inside the car, specially not after it was partying all night. Let the pig live, says I.Helen wrote:Did anyone else see a black mini with a whole pig (dead) strapped to the roof on the Malahide Road in Dublin on Saturday morning?

Re: Seen a Mini?
I'm glad someone else saw it. I thought it was a strange hallucination! It wasn't anyone here, was it? If it was, what were you doing with the pig?
Re: Seen a Mini?
