On my recent trip to England I took a few pictures of MINIs over there, including this billboard poster advert in Norwich, and pictures of a MINI and a Ford Ka (even smaller), both parked outside their garages in a new housing construction. When you compare the size of the cars with the size of the garages, you can appreciate why smaller cars are so popular in England:
