Hi SS, it doesnt actually look much like a cooper though, I have seen these at the lego stores in Denmark and they are pretty unrealistic... Apart from the fact that when you try to open the doors or bonnet/boot, then bits fall off.... so at least that bit is correct :-)

Decided against it. It was a Beetle GT and was going to buy it for £435 as it had a bit of a smash.

No then. I thought you was talking about the 1/10 scale models. :/

IIRC they were made by Nikko and came in a little plastic container. Like this but this is a Bini and far too expensive ;-)

I'm not saying anything... but why leave it in an open car park overnight in the first place? I get paranoid enough at leaving mine only 'worth' 2k even with me close by.
