For those who have the tiny compartment above the main glove compartment what have you got in there? I managed to put in a small furry coin holder where i can access loose change for parking. Whats in yours??

i have a small tupperware box with the lid removed in there


Currently filled with jelly beans and mint imperials but i do occasionally put some midget gems and foam bananas too.

Digital camera and a duster.

Sunglasses, for those rare occasions in Manchester!
To counter that, there is also an umbrella in the boot...

 

[profiteroles]

I am also, if the mood takes me, partial to a jolly rancher or two - they sell them in Selfridge's.

Naff all, Because you can't fit anything of use in there!!

Now, now, Peterg, you can get loads of sweets in there ( with a bit of planning) and I also have a microfibre cloth for wiping the fingerprints off the piano black finishes. And sunglasses. Really, it's pretty big.

Tyre pressure gauge as I prefer to measure my own! Pen and note pad plus the dogs seat belt clip. I like it .

zip wallet with change for parking, a pen and a pen size LCD torch.

I love the fact that some mini owners dont realize it's there.

 

[Peterg]

I don't like using it because every time I open it, it leaves a finger print on the piano black trim! Not really much point in keeping a cloth in there to wipe the finger print off, as when I press it closed the cloth would be inside the compartment.

My 1962 Mini Cooper didn't have any gloveboxes so I'm pretending they don't exist in my 2015 as a tribute.

Wallet.

Stingray
I bet you still had your 1962 Cooper?
My first car was a 1971 Mini Minor that I wrote off when I was 17.. Very sad times.
Always remember the windscreen wash was a foot operated push button on the floor and it had a dynamo instead of an alternator!!!

 

[MintMark]

Sunglasses and a pencil in mine. I rarely use the sunglasses... they make the HUD fade away. My sweets are in the armrest

 

[ThunderSeven]

I have my sun glasses in there.

 

[Stingray82]

PeterG - I had to sell my '62 when I went to University. I still miss it to this day but the F56 makes up for it a bit.

 

[vegbiker]

So far I keep a limited amount of air in there, in case of emergency.

I have the piano black and solve this through forward planning... Have a soft snooker type felt glove in the big compartment which you put on to open the little one.
