Presenting a visual celebration of the classic British car, this fascinating guide follows the evolution of the famous Mini, from Sir Alec Issigonis’ original conception, to its recent rebirth as a badge-engineered BMW. Detailing everything from the police Mini (into whose back seat George Best was once squeezed), the Mini Moke (a weird miniature beach runabout model), the strange Rileys and Wolseleys (Minis with shark-finned boots), as well as the how-many-people-can-you-get-into-a-Mini world record, this engaging timeline is filled with the stories and images that beautifully detail the social history of England’s most iconic automobile and is perfect for both Mini enthusiasts and anyone interested in Britain’s postwar automotive history.
