Thanks for sharing the video! I loved seeing the factory where our MINIs are made. It appears in the video that the workers at the factory care a great deal about our cars and I think that it shows. My MINI is free of problems after 4 years.

That was awesome! Watched the whole thing from start to finish. I was fascinated with the fact that the Challenge cars are actually rejects from the production line. Never knew that!
