You do know the MINI is powered by a NEON motor right? 
|
Actually its not...
The only thing I hate about the Minis is that they made a joint venture with Diamler chrysler and they are cooperating on the engine building process.
Chrysler says that it will use that engine only for non US applications. Which means they are not Neon motors...
Plus Benz is using all there knowledge now to build better engines for chrysler... therefore the new neons are probably much better than the old ones.
Heres a link about the Mini engine if youd some more proof.
Mini engines...

Ahahahaha! But then again, the Neon is sold in other countries besides the US, and therefore the 1.6L "MINI" motor IS a Neon engine.....

And im sure as you read, BMW doesnt want to get rid of the 1.6L because its a bad engine, but more so because of "Diamler Chrysler", Diamler Benz being BMWs biggest competition.
So again, the 1.6 L "MINI" motor IS a Neon engine....
Ok, im not here to make my welcome thread fifty pages long, that has happened once already, but as DSMstyle said, you guys like that stuff?? LOL
