The Mini was a remarkable piece of engineering, a fashion icon, and the object of massive nostalgia. Unfortunately, whether it was a commercial success is open to debate. And if you have to debate whether or not a product was profitable, it's a fair sign that it probably wasn't. So, quite like the VC-10. And I probably couldn't fit in a Mini now. What width were the seats in economy on a VC-10 typically, anyone know?
