James Dyson talking shite, as usual.

Quote:
James Dyson: the Mini

I remember the launch of the Mini in 1959. My brother and I were both 6ft 1in and my mother was 5ft 11in, so here were these great lanky people, getting into a Mini and thinking it was huge.

Italy had the Fiat 500 and France had the Citroën 2CV, both brilliant cars, but... The Fiat and Citroën were both cars with big wheels that projected into the interior of the car, making the interior feel small.

I went in a mini recently, it felt like I was sitting in the gutter and when I went over a bump the brake pipes got ripped open. Useless cars unless you're driving is only ever done on a kart track.

my first car was a mini clubman - it had more cab space than my dads cortina mk 4 or5 the very square one. I broke the crank and stuffed it into many a wall and ditch it ended up with a 15k engine in it from my mates new mini which went under an artic trailer ( before they had side rails) and thus started a line of absolute hingin rats with bloody fast engines, the 2cv is the only car that has kept me from loosing my licence or life.
