If you live in Birmingham, In the area near Northfield Or Longbridge, you will notice on longbridge roundabout there now is a Mini in the middle

On purpose of course, its a real mini with flowers been decorated over it.

Looks pretty snazzy but a waste of a mini. They could of just shaped a bush into a mini?

But anyway saw a couple of minis stopping by it, one white mini parked up and the gentleman taking a photo of it, you maybe on this forum so speak up

Didnt catch any photo as was in a rush but if youve live around that area and have seen it and taken photos, please share or go take some photos now.

I live nowhere near Birmingham, but that sounds like a fitting tribute to me.
