MINI production

It’s finally time to clear the backlog of MINI collectibles that I’ve been meaning to document … so if you’re not interested in collectibles, you might want to look away for a week or so!

Today, a nice MINI production leafleft “The MINI production triangle in the UK”; there’s lots of production triangle stuff around (including this pin), but this leaflet puts everything together quite nicely!
Inside shows a UK “map” indicating the relative positions of the three production plants Hams Hall (engines), Swindon (pressings) and Oxford (assembly), along with descriptions of each plant:

There’s some extra info too, including surprising facts like 429+135=564 robots, ostrich feathers, 2,400 components, and 16 gasoline engine variants!
