    Before you click play a few thoughts to not only set-up but to also judge these commercials by. The four new, 15-second European TV commercials are clearly aimed at showing off the versatility of the R60 in funny ways. Are they actually funny? It depends on your humor. Do they show off the car?

    Consider that in every one all four doors are open or four seats are occupied at one point or another.

    What MINI and their agency aimed to do with these was to show off the wide range of potential customers and the utility of the new car.

    IMHO If you need to explain the commercial before it shows, it's usually not a good sign.

    After seeing them, I can see why you had to explain..:eek:ut:

    "Emergency" makes me think of The Hangover, which I'm guessing is where they were going in part. Overall, not bad. Definitely not American audience material, but a decent line-up.

    At least we know it will seat four and move short ways under its own power.
