BMW And Toyota Unholy Alliance To Spawn Production Version Of MINI Rocketman?

BMW and Toyota’s partnership has reportedly expanded to include the development of a small hatchback platform that could be used for a tiny MINI model tentatively called ‘Minor’.

Minor was the name used for the original Mini that debuted in 1959. Essentially a downsized version of the current two-door Cooper, the new model will borrow styling cues the Rocketman concept shown way back at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, featuring a trapezoidal grille, Union Jack taillights, and a nifty roof with a double-bubble rear section.

Just so MINI doesn't let Toyota get anywhere near their design department. Not that MINI is the pinnacle of car design; but it would be tragic to see more eyesores come from the weird-ass blokes at Toyota/Lexus.
