    TECHNOLOGY

  • TECHNOLOGY

  • Mini Remastered by David Brown Automotive has been painstakingly handcrafted to create

    a contemporary design classic.

    LABOUROF LOVE

  • Inspired by Sir Alec Issigonis’ classic icon, our experienced design and engineering teams work meticulously to remaster the vision to meet the demands of modern life.

    With mass-production comes compromise. By contrast, our low-volume, handcrafted Mini Remastered is built to the highest standards using a combination of traditional

    coachbuilding techniques and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes.

    Our engineers scrutinise all aspects of the car from the ground up. The result is a completelynew structure and exterior body shell. De-seamed, strengthened and sound-proofed throughout,

    Mini Remastered not only looks great, but has improved structural integrity and comfort.

    A hand-applied paint process that lasts for four weeks ensures that every car is not only flawlessly finished but protected for a lifetime.

    CRAFTSMANSHIP

  • Punchy, dynamic and nimble. The perfect companion for around town.

    Change lanes, turn heads and take on the city.

    LIVIN’ FORTHE CITY

  • PERFORMANCE PERFORMANCE

    Completely rebuilt with brand new components, the powertrain in Mini Remastered has been transformed to provide enhanced performance and reliability. The 1275cc engine now produces up to 50% more power than the original unit. The under-bonnet has been detailed throughout with body coloured and chrome-plated components

    drawing inspiration from the exterior.

    The power increase is perfectly complimented by a four-speed manual transmission that channels the car’s energythrough every shift, encouraging you to change gear simply for the pleasure of it.
