MINI Beachcomber Concept

Only in the wacky world of MINI would you unveil a Beachcomber concept as we get our first dusting of snow and an arctic chill.

BMW and MINI just can’t seem to stop themselves knocking out ideas for cars of Christmas future. From BMW’s stunningly sexy and environmentally friendly Vision concept to this latest re-interpretation of the MINI Moke -- there must be something in the water at Munich, something good.



With MINI’s fourth production variant, the SUV inspired Countryman, set for release in Autumn 2010, they’ve adopted the same lofty platform fro this Beachcomber Concept but taken it to the max. Under the assumption that less is more, off come the doors, roof and even the boot. Great for surfboards and kayaks we reckon, if you’re lucky enough to be by Bondi Beach, but not quite so plumb for the British weather.

Details are being kept to close to BMW’s chest at the moment, but all-wheel drive and total disregard of convention are dead certs.
