Oh gawd. :?

Rover Minis ceased production in 2001.
And therefore the 'real' Minis ended in 2001.
Hence Best Before 2001... as in... any mini after 2001 isn't any good.

Ok no offence there but seems that BMW wll think they have a year in there that they were ok,

Besides whats wrong with them anyway,

And if I read correctly (will find article) BMW made Mini's before the new ones anyway, so were now calling there old ones good there news ones bad, think this is a little nasty, and unclear

don't worry about it son... there are people who like binis (BMW minis) and others who think they are just a prostitution of an icon...

BMW bought rover in the late 90's with the plan to dismantle it and keep the good bits (like the mini brand), then they ditched the rest of it. They ceased real mini production soon after they bought the company
