How Successful was the Mini Cooper?

What Happened Later?

And then after several changes in corporate structure, many limited edition models were introduced into the market to revamp the name and the line. Since 2001, the company has been and still is a division of BMW.

Mini was one of the great success stories for cars that came out of England. Even today people that owned the original Minis are very interested and many own the new BMW Minis. It is defiantly a cult car and can defiantly be enjoyed by all classes and ages of drivers. The new car has already established its own following which also gives a lot of attention back to the older model. For one brand and only a handful of models it is a very successful brand and I enjoy working on them everyday !

Mini Cooper is good for mid scale segment which will be a excellent option to pot for.
small is better but not all the time!
if you need a vehicle to go for some camp this weekend then it will not help you , so it's better to go for SUV- semi utility vehicles, they can carries more space and more baggage.
