News of the week from Motoringfile as usual, but with a twist. Todd wasn’t around, so Gabe and I, last minute, decided to do the show live via Ustream.tv.
Besides news, db tells a bad joke and talks about EBC brake pads, and Gabe talks about removing the armrest out of his car. Check back tomorrow our discussion about the Clubman, including answering viewer questions live!
Whiteroofradio turns 2 on Wednesday, August 1st, and we will be celebrating it on Woof 173/174. Pretty good chance we are going to do those live again as well, so keep an eye on this space and over at Motoringfile.com for the details!
Since several sites on the web have now published full galleries, we’ve decided to finally follow suit. Once the press embargo has been officially lifted this weekend, we’ll have the full press release as well.
For super hi-res just click on the “photo link” that comes up as you roll-over the thumbnails. That will take you to our Flickr site where you can click on the “all sizes” button and see each image in all their 3158 x 2332 glory.
This time it was the folks at Autocar who looked peer pressure in the eyes and said… okay. We’re sticking to our guns and not posting our photos but we are replicating what Autocar published below. We’ll publish official hi-res photos soon when the official press embargo is lifted.
MINI has another Clubman micro-site, this time for the world market at MINI.com. However unlike the German one we linked to yesterday, this actually shows off a computer generated Clubman in all it’s glory with all kinda of product details. You even get a chance to see it tool around what looks to be a city in Argentina. The downside is that it’s all CG – no real photos or video is seen.
It looks like Edmunds has broken the official press embargo on all photos and information the 2008 MINI Clubman. So far they’ve only shown three photos and some various specifications (all which we’ve already reported). At this point we’re going to hold off on releasing our own information and photos (the one above is from their site) out of respect for the folks at MINI press who’ve worked so hard over the last few months in preparing the release. However we will give you a link.
Look for tons of pics and info early Sunday morning. Unless the whole world breaks the embargo before then.
MINI of Germany has launched the first official MINI Clubman micro-site today complete with all sorts of viral goodness. You can check it out below. And be sure to be near a computer this weekend as there will much bigger news coming…
