This is my take on what the new mini should have looked like. its longer so its safer but its still a mini. this would have probably have been produced if BMC hadnt gone on all those strikes ;)

i dare sombody modify there mini to look like this

I'm not sure?

I think it could grow on me but needs to be a bit shorter I think.

Good work though ;)

Looks like a fat midget version of the MGB.

I think THIS is what the new mini should have looked like.

I actually like it, mainly because you could easily fit a V6 or even a V8 under the bonnet and still keep most of the drivers foot well :-
