Mini «Remastered», original aesthetics with current technology

Throughout the history of the automobile industry certain models have been created who, for one reason or another, are much loved and admired by the majority of society. We can cite, for example, the original Ford Mustang, the mid-century Fiat 500, the Volkswagen "beetle" and, of course, the original MINI. All these they have returned or have been renewed maintaining, as far as possible, the aesthetics and the original essence.

However, over the years, regulations, safety and society itself have forced these cars to change more than we would like. The dimensions of the Volkswagen Beetle, the Fiat 500 or the MINI Mini they have grown a lot, improving comfort and habitability to adapt to current times, but losing some charm. The fact is that David Brown, an entrepreneur whose idea is to bring legendary vintage cars to the modern world, has created this mini-remastered.

In this case, the Mini Remastered does maintain the contained dimensions of the original model and also the exterior lines and shapes. If we saw it on the street, we would say without hesitation that it is a great restoration of an original Mini. Despite this, it brings with it more elements and technologies of the present than we could expect for its exterior aesthetics. If we see the interior, although it also has a lot of retro air, we find elements such as a central touch screen in 7 inches, navigator or air conditioning.

Other important current things that this David Brown Mini brings is the propellant that hides under its hood. The creator says that, despite its low displacement of just 1.3 litersIt has 50% more power. Also they brakes and suspensions have been modernizedlike the gearbox. Chassis rigidity has been improved for easier handling.
