I saw one of these at a cars in the park thing last year. It was tiny and peering down into the interior (you can only ever peer down into one of these no matter if you're stood, sat, laying down...) it looked like the floor of the car was actually lower than the floor the car was sat on. Most odd. I fear Chapman may have been in league with the devil in order to create a rift in dimensions to lower the CoG on these things as it really does look like the car sits lower than it does in reality.

They rot like gently caress because the arches are basically open to everything the wheels throw up into them and the headlights slot into them so anything the wheel throws up could explode the back of your lights if you're unlucky. Also the radiator sucks air from the left hand arch which as mentioned, is open to the elements. Minis are a masterclass in packaging but a complete loving annoyance to work on. Source: the little green that's currently living on my driveway being stored for a friend for a few months that I've spent far too long working on. That said the doors are actually pretty 'large' and it's only an issue getting in the back, getting in the front is only a problem if you're over 6 foot tall or are a portly chap.
