#2Since the mini is a BMW and BMW drivers are notorious for never using turn signals, this should not be an issue, right?

#3No one in Boston will ever see one, so whatevs.

#4But you know, they look so “British”!
That is a true mental clusterfuck.

#5Hmm, I would not be distracted by this. There are so many different indicators in Europe (we have laxer rule than the US on blinkers) that the "direction" or whatever does not phase me at all.

#6> Mini has not heard any concerns from customers regarding the rear turn indicators
I wouldn't expect them to: they cannot see their own turn signal lights while driving.
If they happen to be behind another Mini, they already know about it and it may not throw them off-guard like others who aren't familiar with it.

#7Lighten up, have a little fun. embrace quirks. Not everything needs to be generic and cleansed of all personality.

#8Flashing the red brake light is a North American thing. Over in Europe you would have a dedicated amber light and I expect there is a different light than the Union Jack which would be reserved for combined rear and brake lights only.
I’ve seen a mini with these lights recently here in Ireland and I’d expect the driver may find their car burnt out sooner rather than later.

I have seen all kind of indicators while driving in Europe, and they all share the same basic thing; a flashing light indicating in which direction the car will be turning.
Suddenly seeing a flashing arrow pointing the other way instantly confused me, and I had no idea which way the car would be turning. This is just plain stupid.

I do hope that all it takes is a few customers in a showroom asking the salesman "does it come without those stupid fucking indicators?"
