Mini Cooper Mecha

A project by eccentric English inventor Colin Mayhew to create a 'Vehicle to autonomous biped robot conversion for the Mini Cooper r5'. Neatly congruent with the increasing profile and revival of the Transformers in 2004, this viral project is expertly executed with the website containing just the right mix of amateurish sketches, links to scientific journals, and amusing camcorder interviews and test footage. Hopefully they'll be follow-ups on the project, and it will spill into campaign extensions.
