MINI IN HAVANA

I was watching Fox News last night and they had a segment on Castro
stepping down in Cuba. One of the video clips of Havana showed a
Chili Red/White MINI on a Havana street. At least one socialist is out
motoring!!

That's hilarious, minirab! I'm just wondering, though...was the Mini you saw a classic Mini or a newer model? I'd be stunned if you were to tell me that it's a newer model since every car down there seems to be from the 50's.

It was one of ours for sure, I believe it was an R50. It would be interesting
to know the history of that car and how it finally reached Havana.
