Has any or all of the "2013" Countryman production been moved to Oxford, England? Thank you.

Mini Factory

There is talk about moving some Mini assembly to the Netherlands. No details on which models will be assembled there.

The factory in Oxford is tooled for the production of two door Minis. The factory in Graz is tooled for foor door Minis and their variants ie the upcoming Paceman. This is probably the main reason that all the Minis from Oxford are available in the same colors and the ones from Graz in a different color scheme.
