United-Kingdom Price increase

Not having kept my eye on the balls for a few months I haven't noticed the cost of the Cooper has gone up to £13010. Is it just in line with inflation etc or do you get more mini for your money?

£13,010.00 from £12,995.00 is hardly a huge increase!

The Vehicle Excise Duty went up by £10 in the last Budget, so MINI tacked on a sneaky fiver!

It will be going up again from 1st May when the First Registration Fee increases from £38 to £50.

United-Kingdom Price Rise

I wasn't having a go at the increase but if Mini are making a sneaky £5 per car thats £3,500 per day £24,500 per week based on them building 700 cars a day. There is not even any materials or production costs for those just 100% profit, you could buy x2 new Mini One cars!!!

Yep - that's how it works.

Build 200,000 a year and that's £1,000,000 in the bank!
