When theU.S. Customs and Border Protection find a vehicle that’s illegal – meaning that thevehicle’s identification numbers (VIN) have been fraudulently changed, or that it has been reconstructed from stolen vehicle parts, then it demolishes it. In this instance, it was a Mini, one of dozens of cars intercepted as part of Operation Atlantic, targeting imported vehicles from the UK. The Austin Mini Cooper was provedillegal, and this is what happened.
