1992 Classic Mini - British Open in Racing Green Color

This car is made in 1992 and the VIN# SAXXNYAXMBD051811

The Mini British Open was introduced by Rover (Ex-Austin) in 1991 first in UK for a total production of 1,000 units and later introduced to Germany with Left-Hand Drive in 1992 for another production of 1,000 units. Typically the British Open has a power sliding cloth roof with 1275 c.c. and they are all in racing green color with the British Open logo on two sides and at the back. They all have beige cloth seats.

This British Open Mini has all of the above. It was imported from Germany 3 years ago and it was repainted in the same racing green color after it arrived Toronto. A few upgrade had been made, such as a performance exhaust, performance air-filter and a set of new alloy wheels and tires. Other than that the car has most of the original features and parts. The car also comes with the original fuel injection, therefore the engine is very easy to start up. The power sliding roof is working very well without leaking. It has never been driven in winter and it is always kept in a covered garage.

The car is in very good running condition. Since it is a 20-year old car, there is no warranty and the car is sold "AS IS". Serious buyer can make an appointment for inspection or test drive. The car is located in Markham (25 miles north of Toronto).

The successful bidder needs to pick up the car himself or make arrangement for shipping at his own cost. He has to make a deposit of US$500 within 48 hours after the auction is close and the balance can be paid in cash, wired transfer or bank draft issued by a Bank acceptable by the Seller.

SERIOUS BUYER TO BID ONLY AND ENJOY THE AUCTION.

Mini Oxford gives birth to 3-millionth car [w/video]

Tue, 09 Sep 2014

With the latest generation of Minis having only recently launched a few months ago, the company's Plant Oxford has found another reason to celebrate as it reached two major milestones almost simultaneously. Since production of the new, BMW-revived version began there in 2001, the factory has produced 3 million of the retro-looking models and 2 million vehicles exported outside of the UK. Just four years ago, it was celebrating building 1.5 million of them.
The three-millionth model was a Mini Cooper S five-door hatchback with a special Union Jack paint job. At about the same time, the factory hit its two-millionth exported Mini to leave there, as well. It was a standard Mini hatchback in Volcanic Orange heading for a buyer in Japan.
UK Transport Minister Baroness Kramer attended the ceremony and said: "I congratulate the workers at Mini Plant Oxford on reaching this remarkable milestone. The Mini is a British icon and is a major part of a thriving automotive industry spearheading the growing British economy."

Lego Mini Cooper coming in August [w/video]

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Lego isn't just for kids anymore. A while back, the company cleverly realized that adults liked its connecting blocks as much as kids but wanted a more sophisticated project to take on. It offers a whole set of Expert models, including a wickedly cool Volkswagen Bus from a few years ago. Now, it's taking aim at automotive enthusiasts again with the recently announced classic Mini Cooper set due to go on sale on August 1 for $99.99.
This is a seriously cool Lego model. At nine inches long, five inches wide and four inches tall, the car is certainly compact (as a Mini should be), but it contains 1,077 pieces. It's finished in the classic Mini look with a British Racing Green body with white roof, hood stripes and mirror caps. The doors, hood and trunk all open up, and there's even a little, simulated engine. The interior includes features like a turning steering wheel and movable gearshift and handbrake. In the boot, there is a cute picnic set, and even a spare tire hidden under the floor. If you want to show off your handiwork after it's built, the roof is removable to peer inside.
Expect dads around the world to be unwrapping these when the holidays roll around. Scroll down to watch one of Lego's designers detailing its latest set and read the full release about it, below. The gallery shows the Mini off from all of its blocky angles, as well.

Mini stretches out with new Hardtop 4 door [w/video] [UPDATE]

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

UPDATE: Information on US availability, specification and nomenclature added to the updated text below.
Few automakers have managed to spin off as many variants of essentially one vehicle as Mini has. The second generation produced even more versions than the first, and now that the third generation is upon us, the process is starting all over again. The jury may still be out on whether parent company BMW will roll out as many body-styles of this latest Mini as it did with the last, but here's our first indication.
Following the introduction of the new three-door Mini hatchback at the LA Auto Show, the Anglo-Saxon marque has introduced a new five-door model. Or four-door, depending on which Mini office you're speaking to: while this new model - an addition to the lineup and not a direct replacement for anything previously offered - is called the Mini 5 door by the factory, here in the US it's called the Mini Hardtop 4 door. Whatever you call it, though, this new Mini is essentially the same as the three-door model (or two-door model with a tailgate), only with - you guessed it - two extra doors. The new Clubman will be a separate model altogether.
