The Mini Plant in Oxford will close for five days due to supply issues caused by the war in Ukraine.
BMW Group said in a statement: "As a result of the ongoing parts supply situation, now including the conflict in Ukraine, further short-term adjustments to the Plant Oxford production schedule are required.
"Plant Oxford is standing down five days of production – Monday 7 March to Friday 11 March inclusive, for all shifts.
"We are monitoring the situation very closely and are in constant communication with our associates and suppliers."
It is not yet known whether the Swindon plant is affected by the changes.
A message was sent to workers this morning, announcing the stand-down.
