Mini uses the Vision concept to show what the net model will look like. We already saw it [Video]

That is right, the next-generation Mini was already seen during a photo shoot, so it is somewhat surprising that BMW (the owners of Mini) unveiled a new concept called Mini Vision. The small car was shown at today’s MINI Design@Home event and, of course, serves to show many design solutions that the production model will adopt.

BMW wasn't amused with the early reveal of the 2014 Mini. Makes fun of the situation

Two days ago, you saw here for the first time images of the next-generation Mini that were taken during an official photo.

Mini used the horse meat scandal to promote itself

 
I think it is wrong to use this type of scandal to get some publicity but I assume it is original and the advertising company that came up with it had a "good" idea since everyone is talking about it. From what i found out this ad was printed in an English newspaper (could be wrong). See it for yourself below and tells us what you think.
