A Mini Cooper Decked Out in Mod-Rocker Stripes Is Yours for the Right Bid

The clock began ticking on Thursday, but you still have roughly 29 days, one hour and 19 minutes to get your bid in on a fabulous -- and decidedly eye-catching -- 2009 Mini Cooper designed by British mod-rocker Paul Weller. Proceeds from the auction will go to two charities that Weller selected: Nordoff Robbins, a U.K. music therapy organization, and War Child, an international charity that protects children from the brutal effects of war and its consequences.
The car, donated by Mini, has 17-inch Crown Spoke alloy wheels, black leather upholstery, Bluetooth, front heated seats and the carmaker's Chili Pack of options that includes floor mats, fog lamps, chrome bumper inserts, roof spoiler and sports suspension.
