Very cool indeed. I thought that it was pretty nifty that the entire dash went in the vehicle as a whole, for some reason I thought that maybe there was a little more assembly inside of the car, rather than being a "unit". Thanks for sharing!

Great video thanks for posting it, I never knew there was one on the 02-06 MINIs as the ones I've seen online were on the R56!

Nice video! It reminds me of the one at the BMW plant in Spartanburg, SC for the Zs and Xs.

I love watching those robots dance around like that. Nice to see the humans do the important welds though

And we complain when there's one little thing wrong like a small rattle..........I know almost all cars are built like this, but the engineering and design to make the car go together is incredible !

Very cool video, at first I thought we were following the production of one specific Mini but noticed scenes of them being a red RHD then a red LHD. I'm also glad to see more human assembly, thanks for sharing.

it's a bit like watching a video of a baby growing in the womb...and then it's delivered and....awwwwww
I want to work there! MINI's make so many people happy...it'd be great to be part of that.
