I love mini's too, I would love a tax free one. Shame they are such rust buckets.
Cool indent with the clio V6, there must have been someone on the BBC art team who worked on it who is into clio V6's, either that or they just liked the look of the clio when they were looking through reference photo's during the concept phase.
Being in the design industry I always wonder why specific cars (or other items) are chosen for media unrelated to the manufacturer. Another example is the advert for 'Them crooked vultures' album, it has a Nissan Figaro featured in one of the black and red illustrations - presumably the marketing guys were looking for a 'quirky retro car' for a rock band and thought a figaro would fit the bill for a rock band; it looks totally misplaced, both stylistically and for the genre of the music.

Well as mad as its sounds, the last engine was a turbocharged 16v A seires, 1460cc with 340+bhp at full boost and ate Jack Knight dog boxes for breakfast. I still have the shell but am currently trying to get hold of Honda CRV/Shuttle 4wd engine and gearbox to fit. 200+bhp on a 10" rim is fun to begin with but a nightmare in general.
There's me thinking it was a period, subtle, reto-mod, that thing sounds insane you nutter.
Those 1.4 K-series engines are very good, I had the 8 valve non injection version in my Metro GTa and for standard it was one of the quickest 1400cc engined vehicle I've ever driven, it's a shame the 1.8 recieved so much scorn in the MGF.
These guys do fantasic mini conversions:
