Missed Opportunity Bike-engined MINI
Discussion
Does anyone remember a BMW small car concept from a few (maybe 10) years ago? It was a funky, Smart-like car with a rear/mid-mounted 1100cc BM bike engine.
I was really interested when I first heard that BMW were going to replace the Mini. Imagine my disappointment when the first leaks came out - its just like a normal small hatchback, but handles better.
Soooooooo, perhaps an old-shape Mini could handle a bike engine? We could call it the Mega-mini. In fact I could donate my Suzuki Bandit, the whine from the engine sounds a bit like a Mini's gears...

I could be on to something here, why not drop a Harley lump into a Griff? Might need more than one, I suppose
