Volkswagen is planning to re-introduce the Beetle. Rover has ordered up a new Mini. The London Times today revealed that Citroen has ordered its engineers to come up with a new 2CV. Can a new Sprite

Frankly, I don't know if I want to see it. I don't like the new Mini, if I was into Bugs I probably wouldn't like the new Beetle (I do). I didn't like some drawings of a new big Healey that I once sa

Of course, we all said the same thing back in the Mesozoic Era when they dropped the Frogeye in favor of the newly styled Mark II. But, ah, the Elise. Now THAT is a sweet car not just to look at, but

The beetle is a classic, people will buy them just because they're so cool. I've never understood why people like Minis. I think they look incredibly stupid. Call me crazy. No offense to mini lovers

Personally I don't want anything named "Sprite" to be made by a ... German. That monstrosity of an excuse of a car called the "Mini for the year 2000" is enough, Mr BMW. Thank you. Evangelos 1966 Spr

Everytime I get gas (for the car, that is) someone always tells me they either had a Sprite or someone close to them did, and that they wish they'd never sold it. People know what it is! Check out Pe

My thoughts exactly. To think that the Mini may finally make a return to our shores only to be sold at BMW dealerships is disgusting. Goes against everything the car stands and stood for. I'm sure an

I agree, Mini's are stupid looking (shoe box on wheels) but they handle incredibly well and are rather fast for what they are. My son owns one and I HATE working on it! Come on now, new cars, regardl
