if you have the opportunity, go to oxford and tour the plant. there is one line and they create every variant for every country on the same line. it is amazing! Convetibles, Coopers, Cooper Ss, old body, new body, and even the Clubman. It's amazing.
i believe the expanion is to create an additional line to do the same thing.

as i said above, they are all made on the same line. they don't make all one car, then make another car. they make them all at the same time. for example if you were looking at the line you might see a convertible, then an 07 S, then a 08 Cooper, then D, etc. All those cars could be going to the same place or to different places.
they have all the parts along the line placed in order of the build. For instance, every country has different regulations for glass and where the VIN shows through. the windshields are stacked in order of the country of destination so when the car comes through, it get's the right windshield. Same goes for wiring harnesses, engines, etc.
I repeat, it's amazing.
