Technically, the Mini was sold under both "Austin" and "Morris" marque names. And it's disputed as to which Mr Bean's was, as they had a few of them and would often swap parts over. The only thing that IS know, is that it was a base model. However, Rowan Atkinson himself has owned a Mini Cooper... So, whoever done this video is probably getting ends mixed up.
@@expatmoose Coopers came with many different engines, 997, 1071, 1275 etc.... but there were all Mini Coopers, not the base model Mini that Mr Bean drives.
Ohh Mr Bean deserves a truck,racing license for being able to drive a car with a chair on the roof Pushing the pedals with a McGuiver set up of sticks and mops 🤣 Never judge a book by all the bulls**t you see🤔 Roman is a petrol head Boss and can’t fault him👏🏼 He is not Bean he is a man’s man🙏🏼
@@poeticalvision it's not weird... it's fxxkin irritating as fxxk, do you actually know what the difference is between an ordinary mini and a cooper??.
Hatters are gonna hate. All I can say with honesty is the footage and I formation is exceptional. I do not doubt your channel will grow quickly. Good luck to you and keep up the good work
Rowan owned the car for 17 years... and even he said, "loved driving the car"... so 41,000 miles isn't far fetched... and there are 2 other F1s with over 50,000 miles out there
His 1999 crash was in forton nr Lancaster local to me. After having a collision with a local lady the press all started arriving at the scene, so Rowen went to wait in a local business to escape from the paps. But as more and more arrived he had to climb into back of one of the companies fridge vans unseen to escape, but turns out he was spotted by a little kid who grassed him up and he ended up being chased around the lanes of garstang by crazy paparazzi while hiding in back of delivery van. Lol i know it sounds like an episode of mr bean but its a very funny true story 😂
To make it clear. Rowan Atkinson attended to classic car races with his Ford Falcon Sprint and it had the original untouched engine of 260 cui 164 hp engine in it. He was the only one that had an american car in these races and he raced BMW, Morris Minor, Mini, Volvo and so on from the same era and these races was weight to ratio-classified so the races would be fair play. The European cars could acctually hook up with Atkinson on the straights but when it came to corners it was the torque of the V8 that let Atkinson win many races with his Ford Falcon Sprint. He was even interviewed about his Ford Falcon on European Top Gear, this means even if his car was stripped as a racing car the engine had to be original. So the narrator got that completely right. But it isn't easy for you people that doesn't know the entire facts about his Ford Falcon Spirit, saying that the narrator got it wrong and bla bla bla. No this time he was right.
They can get off their arse and get a job you know, plenty of work around. Atkinson worked hard and invested wisely and made a few bucks. That's how it's done.
Interesting background to Rowans controversial comments about EVs. Rowan used a set of ice parameters to judge the future value of an EV in particular the lifespan of the traction battery. History of used cars both ice and early EVs, indicates EVs with 300-400km range will be sought after for those seeking a safe and economical vehicle. Why did Rowan not consider the future of EVs from the perspective (needs and budgets) of the average family ie low running costs if charging at home, vehicle to load, lower CoG and structural battery makes it more crash worthy, lower incident rate of fire, nil gas or noise pollution into the street, ability to park and leave unattended with climate control active, smoother quieter ride.. none of these features are effected by a battery with 70% charge. Why didn’t Rowan see these features as being valuable to a household looking for a 10 year old vehicle?
Very disappointing video. It mixes cars he’s owned and sold on with what’s current, just a giant mishmash, misrepresenting the click bait title. Not impressed.
Yeah the giant "2 billion" made up number etc is kinda pathetic. Like... Why? It's Mr bean and cool cars of they'd put more than 3 seconds of effort into the video and didn't make the quality of about what I expect a 13 year old that's into making RUclips videos would do it could have been fun. But instead I'll block their page so I don't accidentally give them any views, cos fuck 'em (and yes I have paused the video to type this so they don't get any more of my viewtime)

WATCH: 'The Driven Man' A short documentary by Atkinson and the BBC about our love of cars. (Can be found in YT) Rowan Atkinson also has a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering (So when he made the infamous comments about EV's recently and the crazies and propaganda papers had a winge about it he actually has more knowledge in this area than most, if not all of the people trying to shut him down) The Falcon would have more power than stated however it has to conform to England's HSCC Historic Road Sports Championship Regulations (5.7) so only minor modifications are permitted to the engine. There were '2' Bean Mini's. Firstly, in the pilot episode it was a 1969 Morris Mini Mk1 in orange, modified with Mk2 Grille and lights with black stripes (BLCV478) Then the green one, (SLW287R/YAN939T) 1980 Austin Morris Mini 1000 (There were a few cars used for filming, all modified to appear similar) (The Movie cars used 3 others) NONE of the Mini's were a John Cooper Special! Also has in his collection: Lancia Delta HF Intergrale Honda NSX (FL Gen1) '77 Aston Martin Vantage Mercedes Benz 500E (Another one, A Blue example, not the Silver one he repurchased) Aston Martin Zagato Land Rover Defender Heritage (I believe he has recently sold this) Skoda Superb
His collection is worth relatively nothing. Try looking at the collection of the sultan of Brunei, which quite literally runs into thousands of vehicles?

I met Rowan in the late 1980's when I was living in London and he lived in the same street I was working in. Back then he was into Aston Martins and sold them for a lot more than he paid for them. I still don't think he is funny though.
That's not a collection but cars he used to own. If that was a collection he would still be the owner of all those cars.
Yep ! Collection means you have it not lost it
So who owns them. Why are they in that building.
@@Designer_TopG heaven knows who owns them now
Rowan should've been picked for top gear presenter. He's the perfect all-rounder.
Or imagine if rowan atkinson is in a fast and furious movie
Great idea !
This is not his car collection but cars he used to own as he's sold them. To be his collection he would have to own them. Also not a mini cooper
03:37 - I've been lucky enought to see that in person! An all time favourite classic of mine! 😍
Honda NSX 🇯🇵
It’s not a Mini Cooper and the Ford falcon has a lot more power than 164bhp so I won’t be watching anymore . Get facts right
Agreed
That Ford Falcon is probably nursing around 400hp give or take. This Dinkle narrating hasn't a clue about cars.
👋 see ya
You know this reminds me of tavaris noha a stand up comedian he was joking about how Americans are serious statistics.....
!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Aww muffin
Mr Bean’s Mini was a basic Austinmini NOT a Mini Cooper!
The badge actually states Mini 1000.

So where and what is in the collection? You showed a few cars he has owned and sold. Big deal. 👎
If he really did 40,000 miles in his F1 that must be one of the highest milage ones. BTW there was only about 100 built. So a very very special car.
Before crashing it.
@@KevinMilton-ls2km twice

This video proves that there's more to Rowan Atkinson in terms of cars than the Mr Bean Mini.

Opening scene is from an Indy car shop in Komoka, ON when they did cars and coffee about 5 or 6 years ago - NOT ONE of those cars are Atkinson's.

Mr bean is British so it is not dollars it is pounds
Why you put 2 billion on the title image? It is missleading crap. I hope others thumb it down too.
I can’t blame him for having all those cars. If I was mega wealthy I’d have loads of cars . But I’m not so I don’t.
