The car used in the TV Series by actor and car enthusiast, Rowan Atkinson, was showcased at the twelfth 'Creme 21 Youngtimer Rally' in Spa, Belgium. Given away by the vibrant 'Citron' yellow paintwork, the Mini was easy to spot.

Mr. Bean's car was built in 1974 and waited more than 16 years for its 15 minutes of fame, once it was used in the famous series. 14 episodes of the adventures of the character played by Atkinson were shot between 1989 and 1995, some of them also featuring the car.

Some special features were also installed on the small car, features like a detachable steering wheel and a padlock, vital to the main character in ensuring that he never became separated from his four-wheeled friend.
