The firm said buyers of Minis would be investing money in British-built vehicles, and therefore showing support for car manufacturing operations based in the UK.
Andy Hearn, Mini UK General Manager, said: “With close to 150 UK dealers and manufacturing bases in Oxford, Swindon and Hams Hall, I am certain that British people will recognise the importance of Mini to the UK economy, particularly as this year we are celebrating half a century of Mini in Britain.”
