Pretty good I suppose, but do they do the same for the German team?

Watched this this morning, thought it was pretty cool! MINI must have one of, if not, the best marketing/media teams currently in the automotive market!

They're a british brand built in britain. Remember Rover was owned by BMW to does that make my rover mini a bmw?

Not wanting to pour petrol on the mini v bini thing, but BMW took over Rover, asset stripped them, then got rid of what they didn't want leaving thousands without a pension, not to mention killing off the iconic mini. If you are in the west mids I wouldn't suggest rover and BMW are the same thing if I were you. It's good that the new mini provides jobs and I think people need to look at that as well and what happened previously will be irrelevant to most people but I doubt many ex rover workers drive them.

Never really noticed that much difference of note in a car horn to do it. I wonder if they have had them tweeked for the ad.
