I had a chance to drive the last Generation UK Mini in 1997, i had a feeling of driving a bus as the seat is quite 90 degree upright and the front view is huge, That was a Green Sport version that Friend of mine would like to give me, I should take it as not long later they had announced to stop production and shifted to BWM maker as for the Amercian Designed new Mini.
Now there is a Mini E that is under pilot production for 500 units... I think It is still too early for HK to adapt for 100% EV car, I think they should go for Hybrid verison first,, I am the first few people to consider to get one in HK, as Mini is one of my favourite.. I liked it since I saw it in the 60's at Macao car racing.
