I dont think the new Mini was a child of Rover, I believe it was a child of BMW all the time, developed to jump on the retro bandwagon. The very first new Minis here were registered as BMW Mini in the registration papers.

Wrong; the new Mini was already under development when BMW came in. Thats why there isn't a single original BMW part under the hood. The engine is of somekind of South-American origin, while gearbox is French (SAXO !). If BMW did the whole development, there wouldn't be a SINGLE foreign part in the car.. |

Blikopener: I stand corrected. I dont know these cars that much, VW/Audi is my game. I do know though, that the 1.6 engine is a cooperation with Chrysler, the same 1.6 is also found in the Chrysler Neon. The diesel is a Toyota unit.
