And it hardly feels like Yesterday when number 100,000 was freshly made!

We received a tip-off at the weekend that the one millionth MINI was due to be produced on Tuesday 3rd April. Well, a MINI2 member who attended a factory tour last night was informed that the car had indeed rolled down the line on good time.

According to our sources MINI One Million will be kept by BMW/MINI heritage. It is also coloured Pepper White with a new shade of Green for its roof!

Incredible as it may seem to those who’ve been with MINI and MINI2 since the early days, it is nearly five years since MINI number 100,000 was produced (as reported on MINI2 at the time). One thing seems certain, it wont take nearly as long one million to be manufactured, with an increasing model range and insatiable appetite of the public for all things MINI.
