- I like the rugged look of
this car.
“””The Mini is a small car
produced by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its
successors from 1959 to 2000. The most popular British-made car ever, it has
since been replaced by the New MINI, which was launched in April 2001. The original
is considered an icon of the 1960s,[2][3][4]
and its space-saving front-wheel-drive layout (that allowed 80% of the area of
the car's floorpan to be used for passengers and luggage), influenced a
generation of car-makers.[5]
This distinctive two-door car was designed for BMC by Sir Alec Issigonis.[6][7] It was
manufactured at the Longbridge and Cowley
plants in the United Kingdom, and later also in Spain (Authi), Australia,
Belgium, Chile, Italy, Portugal, South Africa, Uruguay, Venezuela and Yugoslavia.
The Mini Mk I
had three major updates: the Mk II, the Clubman and the Mk III. Within these
was a series of variations including an estate car,
a pickup
truck, a van and
the Mini
Moke — a jeep-like
buggy. The Mini Cooper and Cooper "S" were sportier versions that
were successful as rally cars, winning the Monte Carlo Rally three times.”””
