Mr. Bean, one of the most beloved characters from the self-titled comedy series, is one of the most entertaining and well-loved characters by audiences around the world.
Aside from his distinctive clothing style and the teddy bears that he always carries everywhere, Mr. Bean’s bright yellow-green car has also become an iconic symbol of the character.

In this article, we’ll take a closer look at Mr. Bean’s car, from its model and history to its specifications and current market value!
Mr. Bean’s car first appeared in the 1990 pilot episode, and it underwent several changes in both model and color.
Initially, the car that first appeared was orange, but it was eventually changed to a bright yellow or lime green color with a black hood, the version most people are familiar with today.
This color choice was intentional. The vibrant, contrasting colors gave the car a quirky yet easily recognizable appearance, perfectly aligning with Mr. Bean’s eccentric character.
As for the model, the car used is a Leyland Mini 1000, manufactured by British Leyland. This model was first launched in 1959 and was known for being a tough little vehicle, fuel-efficient, compact, and easy to maneuver.
Mr. Bean’s car is a 2-door sedan with a revolutionary design for its time. Its front-engine layout meant a compact engine space, and the entire car measures just 3.1 meters in length, 1.4 meters in width, and 1.3 meters in height.
Like many classic cars, the windows of the Leyland Mini 1000 are manually operated using a crank handle.
Under the hood, the Morris Mini is equipped with a BMC A-series engine, which has a capacity of 848 cc and a 4-cylinder inline OHV configuration.
Due to its compact size, the car also has a relatively small fuel tank capacity of only 25 liters.
As for its iconic exterior design, the Leyland Mini featured aerodynamic styling, a chrome-accented front grille, and large, round headlamps.
The lime green color used on Mr. Bean’s car is a custom paint job, not part of the original Leyland Mini 1000 factory color options, which makes it all the more unique and memorable.
Standard Leyland Mini 1000 models came in a variety of colors, such as gray, yellow, red, and blue.
Due to its classic and iconic design, Mr. Bean’s car is now highly sought after by vintage car collectors, which has driven its market price to impressive heights.
One of Mr. Bean’s cars was once sold at auction for USD 60.000 or around IDR 850 million due to high collector interest.
Current prices for Leyland Minis vary depending on the year of manufacture. For instance:
A 1972 Morris Mini can be found for around IDR 320 million.
A 1986 Morris Mini can sell for around IDR 420 million.
A rate 1989 Morris Mini Rover 30th Anniversary Edition, which only 15 units available in Indonesia is priced at around IDR 580 million.
That wraps up our discussion about the iconic Mr. Bean car, widely recognized for its distinctive color and unique design. Hope it helps!

Ketika memasuki musim hujan, sering kali kita mendengar atau melihat iklan yang memasarkan produk suplemen kesehatan untuk menjaga daya tahan tubuh. Perubahan cuaca memang bisa mempengaruhi daya tahan tubuh seseorang. Namun, apakah suplemen yang ditawarkan di pasaran, baik berupa multivitamin, probiotik, atau kandungan lainnya benar-benar mendorong kinerja imun dalam tubuh?
Artikel yang diterbitkan oleh Harvad Health Publishing berjudul “Can Supplements Boost Your Immune System?” membahas mengenai peran suplemen bagi tubuh. Michael Starnbach, seorang profesor bidang cicrobiologi dari Harvard Univerity menyatakan bahwa suplemen yang beredar di pasaran tidak menawarkan banyak manfaat kesehatan. Apalagi belum ditemukan bukti bahwa suplemen dapat melawan penyakit.
Sistem imunitas dalam tubuh merupakan proses yang kompleks dan saling menyeimbangi. Oleh karena itu, sebenarnya sistem imun sendiri sudah cukup untuk “memagari” tubuh dari berbagai penyakit. Dengan catatan kinerja imun tubuh akan maksimal dengan asupan gizi yang cukup dari sayur, buah, dan daging. Sehingga peran suplemen tak terlalu berarti jika Anda memang sudah sehat.
Produk suplemen yang dipasarkan dapat mendorong imunitas tubuh biasanya jatuh ke dalam dua kategori utama; vitamin dan probiotik. Suplemen berupa vitamin bisa membantu menghindarkan tubuh dari penyakit jika seseorang mengalami malnutrisi (kekurangan gizi), sedang sakit, atau membutuhkan suplemen tertentu. Sedangkan mengenai probiotik, Starnbach setuju bahwa bakteri dan organisme baik dalam tubuh bisa berkontribusi terhadap fungsi imunitas tubuh. namun, diperlukan riset lebih lanjut mengenai hal ini.
Sebaiknya Anda berkonsultasi dengan dokter atau apoteker sebelum mengonsumsi suplemen tertentu. Khususnya jika Anda memiliki sensitivitas terhadap zat tertentu, berusia di bawah 19 tahun, sedang hamil, atau mengidap kondisi tertentu. Anda bisa mengonsumsi suplemen jika memang dibutuhkan.
Tips Menjaga Kesehatan
Lalu, jika suplemen tidak berperan banyak untuk menodorng imunitas tubuh, bagaimana cara kita tetap sehat di segala keadaan? Starnbach berpendapat bahwa kesehatan dipengaruhi oleh kebiasaan yang kita lakukan. Terdapat beberapa tips yang mungkin bisa Anda terapkan untuk menjaga kesehatan:

Car transmissions are divided into two types, which are manual and automatic. Unlike automatic transmissions, manual transmissions consist of more complex components.
The main difference in manual transmissions lies in the way the gears are shifted and the pedals, where the driver must manually operate them to change gears.
Therefore, the components of manual transmissions are generally more complicated compared to those of automatic transmissions. What are these components and their functions? Let’s take a look!
The transmission input shaft is a key component of manual transmissions that connects to the clutch. These components of a manual transmission have the function to rotate the gears in the gearbox.
The next component is the transmission gears, with their function to convert the engine’s input power into torque output.
This allows the driver to adjust the vehicle’s speed and rotation power according to road conditions.
The synchronizer or adjustment gear functions to equalize the rotational speed between transmission gears, ensuring smooth and safe gear shifts even while the vehicle is moving.
The shift fork functions to move the gears on the shaft, enabling the driver to shift gears as needed.
It serves as the link between the gear lever and the gear mechanism inside the manual transmission.
The shift linkage ensures that the movement of the gear lever is translated into movement in the shift fork, allowing gear changes to occur.
In short, this component effectively transmits the driver’s commands to the gearbox.
The gear lever, also called a shift stick, allows the driver to control and shift gears based on road conditions and driving needs.
This component gives the driver direct control over gear changes while driving.
The transmission case protects internal components from dirt and external impacts.
It also serves as a container for the transmission of oil and houses critical parts such as the bearing, the input shaft, and the output shaft.
The output shaft transmits rotational power from the transmission system to the propeller shaft, ultimately driving the wheels.
Additionally, it can serve as a mounting point for the gear stick in a vehicle.
Bearings in manual transmissions help reduce friction between components such as the input shaft, output shaft, and counter gear.
This ensures smoother operation, minimizes wear and heat, and improves efficiency.
The counter gear transmits power from the input shaft to the output shaft. It allows the transmission to adjust the correct gear ratio to match vehicle speed and engine torque.
This component plays a crucial role in enabling the car to change speed according to the driver’s needs.
In addition to the components above, manual transmissions also consist of various other parts such as the reverse gear, hub slave, speedometer gear, transmission housing, transmission oil seal, control rod, shift rod end, clutch hub sleeve, hub sleeve, shifting key, spring key, and interlock system.
All these components work together to ensure the manual transmission functions are effective and reliable.
