    At least the red one is a proper Mini.

            Both fine examples of British manufacturing ability.....just that the red one is nice to drive and the white one isn't. ....in my opinion lol


            Owned a proper mini and loved it, drove a modern mini a lot since my last job had one as a run around (the company made bits for the mini) and I hated driving it.....small and cramped in a way that the proper mini wasn't,  went that smelly stuff off a Teflon shovel but I'd rather have move room inside.....always remember my old mini could easily take 4 people, wouldn't want to try and squeeze in 4 in a modern one

                aren't the new ones built ( well put together) in England?

                      The is a "biggie" in front of the mini. My kids call them "biggies" as they sure as heck ain't small.
