And you can thank Brexit, Britain's exit from the European Union, for that. Sources stated, "BMW claims that the current MINI's lifespan has 'been extended... For cost reasons and because of Brexit.' "

Britain formally left the European Union last week, and since Bavarian-based BMW has owned Mini since 1994 and developed three generations of the iconic and no-longer-small British car in the interim, it's on the hook for some Brexit effects. (Breffects?) British trade relations with the EU are currently up in the air, and because the current Mini Cooper is built in Oxford, England, that means BMW is in a pickle.
