The 2 millionth
MINI has rolled off the production line at MINI’s UK plant in Oxford. Mind you we are talking about
the MINI here, not the Mini, which was the old 1960s car. Only 10 years
ago did BMW start producing the new MINI hatch, and has since added several derivatives, including a
Convertible and the recent Countryman.
“It’s a real privilege to drive this true British icon off
the production line today,” said British Prime Minister David Cameron. “The 2
millionth MINI to be made here in Oxford is a fantastic symbol of the UK’s strength in the global automotive industry and a great British
manufacturing success story. MINI is
not just a symbol of our industrial past, but also the great industrial future we want to build.”
