Re: Nice article...
" It's about as "mini" as 70's Land Rover"
I prefer to think of it as the BMW Maxi. Someone was going to blow the doors off, but it turned out to be a bit stretchier than they imagined.
Has anyone tried mixing cross ply and radial tyres on a BMW Maxi?
One day, someone will update the mini and get it right, but I'd be willing to bet it won't be in the next decade.
