+1 I wonder if they'll give them away to favoured people after the games or auction them? They'd sell loads if they put them into production

What I thought

The volunteers who controlled the MINI's must have had a great time, in the midst of all the action in the Olympic stadium

They were very cool, we saw them when we were there on Thursday night going out and bringing back the javalins for the men's decathlon and ladies final events. There was one close call though, when a stray javalin almost hit one of Minis.
