Mini Design: Past Present Future

Perhaps I'm biting off more than I can handle, but I'm jumping in anyway.

There is a new book on Mini design available which I recently became aware of which looks interesting to me.

Currently available in German text only, but due to be reprinted in English mid year per an email I have from the publisher.

Here is the publishers website, http://www.motorbuch-versand.de/cgi-scr ... ini_design

No I can't read it either, thus Google translate, http://translate.google.com/translate?j ... auto&tl=en

And Amazon.de, http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/3613031 ... d_i=301128

Again I have trouble, so Google translate to the rescue, http://translate.google.com/translate?h ... %26hl%3Den

Now the good stuff (easier to read)...

Five installments showing a good portion of the books content...

1) http://www.motoringfile.com/2010/01/19/ ... more-10967

2) http://www.motoringfile.com/2010/01/22/ ... re-part-2/

3) http://www.motoringfile.com/2010/01/23/ ... -part-2-2/

4) http://www.motoringfile.com/2010/01/25/ ... re-part-4/

5) http://www.motoringfile.com/2010/01/26/ ... re-part-5/

What I was thinking is a club purchase. That is if the publisher is receptive to the idea. I'd be willing to investigate the possibility and then if it's a go, try to get a club order together.

Any interested parties?

I'd be interested in a copy. In english, of course. :D
