OP.

You need to come and fix this.

I want to get outraged, but you need to supply the fuel.

I think a guy called Nick Mann had a very famous Moggy 1000 that was a V8 Supercharged and turbo charged, water injection and all sorts done to it. It started off as his mums shopping car 😆

Here it is

I do like the Moggy! I'll bet the rear tyres might not pass an MOT check for tread depth. 😀

As a fan of the original Mini I actually liked the new Mini when they first released it. Small, good looking and cheap. The models since the rear lights got larger, especially the latest one, and all the other Mini models they now do are just hideous. Not one looker in the group. They're all huge too!!

I read a long article about someone doing a hillclimb in one of the original Audi Quatros (not Pike's Peak) and how the car handled so well, put the power down, screaming engine at max revs etc etc and got FTD

The closing like was something like "Of course so and so in his Morris Minor was only .25 seconds behind it which was pretty good even if he does have a turbo'd Rover V8 in it". May have been that one above as it does seem ot have histopry from a quick google.

Its because they're trying to do repeated restyles of one retro design of one car. They got it right the first time they did it - but for the 15 years since then all they can do really is meddle with that same design and bolt stupid things onto it. But theres not really anywhere else to go.... unless they start from scratch and come up with a contemporary reboot of the Innocenti Mini 🙂
