Why Is The Mini Such A Good [Great] Car?

  009

This poetic post from The Mini Forum by MiniMarco really struck a chord with me -

It was born of an optimist and innovator.

It was the little car that can, a bright promise that was uncommonly actualized.

It represents rebelliousness, having beaten the authorities in motor racing.

It is impatient like a dog on a leash being taken for a walk every time you take it around a corner.

But it is great because it is flawed. It reminds us of ourselves. If it was not, it would not be capable of capturing the hearts of man for generations.

godspeed little mini     

 

NOW . . .Here's your chance to let MINI know what Mini/MINI means to YOU -

Whether you're a certified MINIac or yet to take a test drive, Munich's Ludwig-Maximilian-University would love to hear more about what MINI means to you.
