Wow that was a great insight I have not seen that before, of course I miss a lot, LOL... Thank You for posting this link

Thanks for sharing. First time I have seen this.

You are welcome. A colleague at work IM'd the link to me last night... thought you guys might find it fascinating... I did!

I had seen some of this footage....but a good bit of it is brand new to me. An excellent find!!! I still think the robots are fascinating/eerie to watch...I'd not seen the ones running around the engine plant!

Oh cool! Thanks for posting that! Really shows the detail and care that is put into making a MINI

Great video. I have watched it about 8 times now. I just wish I was able to see them building mine!

this is such a good video to watch, since my MINI is in production right now.

THANKS!

A fascinating video; watching cars being produced is always awe inspiring, but the MINI is definitely special; more of a personal touch than most cars plants. Thanks for sharing!

A few hundred times a day passes the time and makes the wait easier. [kidding!]

Very cool! Thanks I'll be in the UK for a few days this summer... anyone know if they give tours of the Oxford plant?

yep they do. The Oxford plant is called BMW Hams Hall Plant. You can call the plant and schedule a tour. My coworker went last year and he said it was a blast.

Here's an email address:

Oxford.Plant-Tours@bmwgroup.com

Thanks very much! This will be a treat

Wow thats a pretty Sweet Vid never knew How many Bots they actually used thanx 4 the view

Thanks for posting the link! Cool video!

I highly recommend taking the trip upto the UK and seeing this in person. I did this last year during the production of the R53 and below. Truely spectacular to see how our beloved cars are built. You really begin to appreciate the work and quality that goes into our MINI's.

Even after visiting, I never get tired of watchin the video. Thanks for the post.
