MINI Model Codes

R Fifty WHAT!

The MINI community loves to throw around chassis codes and model generations like they're going out of style. MINI themselves have thrown an extra dash of confusion into the mix by being fairly inconsistent with their naming conventions. If you aren't sure about your chassis code, or MINI generation, we've created this handy guide to help you make sense of it all.
