I picked this up from my MINI forum

You can make this yourself for under 20 bucks and it works great! Mount it anywhere that is relatively flat on your MINI. I mount it to the inside of the rear sunroof (upside down) and then simply flip it with my video editing program.

You'll need: Suction Cup Lifter $3.50 from Harbor Freight Tools ITEM 46134-0VGA

A Ball and Socket type camera mount, I chose the Slix SBH-100. $9.95 online. Google it. Pick a mount that fits the weight of your camera. Drill the handle, and secure it with a 1/4" bolt 1 1/4" in length. I recommend using a "just in case" strap.

Pics and short video of the finished mount:
