1) Sir Alec Issigonis' proposal required less than half of the parts to build when compared to the original Mini. If this proposal had moved forward, how would this fact impact the WBS (work breakdown structure) for the vehicle development process? And how would it later impact the production process and cost?

2)Yet another attempt was made in 1992 to redesign the Mini with a new K-series engine and drivetrain. How did environmental factors such as crash test ratings and emission standards play a role in the cancellation of this project?
