Minier Mini Rocketman Concept Updated for the London 2012 Games

The concept study that debuted at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show and which was initially thought to base a smaller Mini hatchback before we learned than the BMW Group dropped those plans, has been updated to promote the company’s sponsorship of the London 2012 Olympic Games.

So what's new with the 2012 edition of the Mini Rocketman Concept? For starters, the updated model now wears the colors of the British national flag, the Union Jack, both inside and out.

After Camping, MINI Takes the Cooper Hatchback for Yachting

For some unexplained reason, Mini has discovered a deep-seated love for nature introducing not one, but two different conceptions targeting buyers that love going out and enjoying the environment.

Following the presentation of the two camping solutions, the British brand has crafted together a new amphibious model called the MINI Cooper Yachtsman and revealed it online before it makes its world premiere at the New York International Auto Show, right beside the Hudson River.
