show some consideration to the other mini owners on here and respect the forum rules.

Quote:
18. Any posts referring to roundies , clubbies or Bini's (or any variants of these; whether currently on sale in Australia, or on sale in other countries other than Australia) as "ugly front" etc or not being real mini's will be edited or deleted at the mods discression . Play nice people , just because someone elses mini isn't your preference doesn't give you the right to insult it .

The biggest problem with that car is that we all know what a mini looks like.
If we had never seen a mini it would look quite good, much better than many small cars.
There are a number of truly great classics that should never ever be attempted to be restyled/modernized.
The mini is one and the other that comes to mind is the MkII Jag. Look at the abortion that Ford made of that.

Yesterday I saw a Ford Bronco with Altezza tail lights.
It reminded me of this.

Good question...The Asians are very fond of dramatically changing existing
models to look like older English cars.
