Don't let that stop you trying a recent "mini". I don't think anybody told 
BMW that "mini" means small in English. The latest Mini, made 15 miles from 
here, is v-a-s-t. Bigger than a 1 or 3 series BM anyway.
It is quite bizarre to see one parked either next to either a 3-series, or 
even more striking, and original Issigonis mini, from which they still use 
styling cues...
