The History of the Mini the Definitive Story One of the most popular British marques of all time, the venerable Mini, first appeared in 1959. It was "everyman's" car. A car that could be taken out to drive in a rally, used to commute, court your sweetheart or fitted with a truck bed and turned into a service vehicle. It was a scrappy, fun car that its fans around the world adored. But like many British car companies, it was bogged down in a larger company that was imploding. Just before it went under, BMW came to the rescue. After pouring in millions of Deutchsmarks to revive the Mini, the revived car landed on the world stage with a bang. It became a movie star and a cult favourite. This is a car that refused to die. Region: Region 0 Main Language: English Certificate: E |
