Wow what a fantastic video!

It's hard finding words to express how I feel about minis...but I think this video sums it up

Featuring the world's shortest driving instructor!

I'm a little uneasy with the BMW involvement. Okay, fair play to them for making something interesting and paying homage to the history, but I can't help but feel they're trading off the original Mini's heritage which they just bought, without any real involvement in such an iconic car. Maybe it's just me.

Superb film all the same.

I found it strange that both the Bini and mini were referred to as "MINI" throughout the whole clip, without any distinction between the two.

Fantastic film nonetheless, and thanks for sharing it Marcello.

why do people have a problem with them refering to minis as MINI.... i dont seeing as its the same but with capitol letters.. if you wanted to get technical they should define between every single model of mini, they arent going to do that
