Report: Mini Beachcomber Concept very likely to enter production

Mini Beachcomber Concept

The Mini Moke is back… well, almost. Mini bosses are currently looking at whether or not to put the buggy-inspired Beachcomber concept into production. Mini says that the new Countryman based crossover concept was a huge hit at the 2010 Detroit Motor Show in January.

“We will come back to this to see if there is a business basis, as we were overwhelmed by the reaction. MINI will never show a concept that won”t make production,” said head of brand management Dr Wolfgang Armbrecht.

The Mini Beachcomber Concept was built around the road-going version of the Countryman, but gave up two doors to pay tribute to the Mini Moke – the legendary Mini-based take on the classic beach buggy.
