Fascinating to watch. My 2023 Clubman is in the paint booth as of today. Nice to see all of the TLC that the staff give when assembling these vehicles.

It’s always a great experience doing the factory tour and seeing them made

I ordered a 2023 2 door hardtop S. Next day salesman called to tell me my car is being made as we speak. He also said in a few days I would git the VIN #. Haven’t heard and now I think my sales order was a lowball figure. The sales agreement is useless without the VIN or sales manager signature.

@Jcwadventures Год назад

Not sure about that. Hopefully you will have your VIN number soon

A couple of years after I got my 2007 MINI Cooper S I went on a business trip to Denmark and on the way back to the states I stopped in England for a few days for the sole purpose of an Oxford plant tour. Definitely a highlight of the trip. It was just me and a couple from Germany so the tour guide was able to show us a little more and take us a little closer to the action. Very cool fellow and enjoyed every minute of seeing how our MINIs are made.

@Jcwadventures 2 года назад

Glad you stopped at Oxford plant tour. The times i have been i see something different everytime. Definitely worth a visit for a MINI owner or non car people as it gives you so much insight.

Hey there. Is this all new footage from the last couple of months? My mini might be in that!

@Jcwadventures 3 года назад

The video is about two years old now so it was shot in 2019. Congrats on your new MINI. Whats the spec?

@Jimothy667 3 года назад

@@Jcwadventures Ah ok no worries, to be fair a lot of the footage I've not seen before so it was good to have a peek at more info on them building the cars. My specs are: JCW Mignight black metallic Red roof and mirrors 18inch JCW alloys Sports auto box Comfort Pro, Nav pro, Matrix LED lights Intelligent adaptive suspension Heated steering wheel Heated windscreen Darkened rear glass JCW Bonnet stripes (naturally)

@RedLP5000S 2 года назад

Until six minutes in, I was saddened that there were no humans involved. It's both amazing and frightening to see so many robots taking jobs away from people. Regardless, it was a wonderful look into how our beloved Mini is built. Cheers.

@Jcwadventures 2 года назад

A lot of the process is now machined done to avoid margins of error and make it quicker. Only high-end cars have more human build process. Glad you enjoyed the video

@MikeTheBike58 2 года назад

There are plenty of people that work in paint and assembly. Most of the robots are in BIW

@Alinkhayra 2 года назад

To have robot automation in plants, they definitely have more skilled workers for all the monitoring, changes and maintainence. The automation gives new job opportunity as robot services, schedule maintainence, Network control, and lots of new sort more high skill workers. Thats good for the country.

@davidgreenwood5241 Год назад

Well it makes you wonder in the future if no humans are required to make anything whose going to have the money to buy there products

@danearp Год назад

When I first started at plant Oxford in Body in white I was on the finish line. I believe there were around 75 people. Co2 welding, panel setting, gas welding, hanging tailgates and the other outer surface panels across 3 finish tracks . There are now 6 people on one track. It's really hard to see people get moved to other areas or building when you've worked together for a while but it's also really interesting to see how robots have made the jobs much more precise with less and less mistakes.

@mattewclubb5882 Месяц назад

I’m more of a sports car type of person but I respect the mini for a lot of reasons, even thou it’s cheap it kind of looks exotic and luxurious in a way, and it’s logo🤌. And not to mention it’s reliablity and comfort inside, and not to mention how quiet it is inside, ohhh the quietness.

@americanpatriot2422 2 года назад

Great video!

@4Kandlez Год назад

The robots were doing a great job, the humans not so much, they looked uninterested in what they were doing. Why are they all wearing different clothing, does Mini not provide them with official work clothing? It looks very unprofessional, and you don't hear music blasting out in a German or Japanese car factory, it's very distracting. The guy checking the panel gaps by eye was a highlight though.

@Jcwadventures Год назад

I don't think this was filmed on the same point of timeframe. Official clothing is provided but I think this varies role to role

@danearp Год назад

I've worked at Plant Oxford since 2002 and we do have uniforms now. The orange at the point of the video was for the Lead Associate who runs the areas (my role) the few people you saw feeling the body over are actually like that in person lol Our uniforms all have our names on so even strangers can feel at home as they already know our names before we've opened our mouths

@Jcwadventures Год назад

@@danearp Thanks for that information and watching the video

@motorv8N 2 года назад

Fascinating tour - thank you! Got any footage of the SE electric part of the build process? I understand they are built alongside the gas versions? We’re about a month into owning one and are just loving it.

@Jcwadventures 2 года назад

Yes they are made alongside the existing combustion MINI. Glad your enjoying the EV life. Here is link to how the Electric MINI is made ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BQZh_WmXKBw.html
