This is from 2002 or 2003:

MINI will introduce MINI Travel Gear this fall, the result of a joint development project with Samsonite Corporation. Specially designed and engineered by Samsonite, the luggage fits perfectly into the boot of the MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S.

"This synergistic relationship allows us to offer premium products designed and engineered with Samsonite quality, and aligned with MINI styling and lifestyle attributes," said Rinat Aruh, Lifestyle Development Manager for MINI. "MINI customers can fill their boot with luggage on a moment's notice, for spontaneous adventure."

The MINI automobile was launched in March 2002 in the U.S. and has a distinctive style and brand personality all its own. Taking function and style cues from the MINI itself, MINI Travel Gear fits the active "motoring" lifestyle with durable, multi-functional designs you expect from Samsonite. Each piece of MINI Travel Gear has removable pieces for quick and versatile packing - allowing enthusiasts more time to "motor." Samsonite specifically designed the three-piece set that features MINI's reflective piping and chrome-hubbed wheels. An orange push button on the locking handle is modeled after the MINI's turn signal indicator light, for those free spirits seeking unexpected turns in their travels. Additionally, each piece has undergone performance testing to ensure Samsonite's quality and durability standards.

MINI Travel Gear is the latest addition to the MINI MotoringGear(TM) collection, and features:

CONVERTIBLE TOTE, Convertible style, zip-away adjustable shoulder straps convert this tote to a backpack. Large front opening gives access to an ample main compartment. The "shoe tunnel" stows footwear in a convenient accessible location.

I am selling my tote, as I never used it.  It comes with the remainder of the Samsonite 10-year warranty and a lock and 2 keys.
