The Story of Mini : A Tribute to the Iconic Car

€17.90

The Story of Mini is a pocket-sized and beautifully illustrated celebration of the iconic car.

Mini’s story begins in 1959 with the original two‑door model that became the most popular British car of all time — a tiny, ingenious design that reshaped urban driving and inspired a culture all its own. This book follows the brand from its British Motor Corporation roots through decades of evolution, right up to the modern BMW‑backed lineup, showing how the Mini’s charm, personality and engineering have endured.

It also explores the car’s influence on pop culture and motorsport, from its iconic screen appearances to the racing legacy shaped by John Cooper. With rich imagery and thoughtful commentary, the book captures how Mini grew from a small, practical city car into a beloved global symbol of style, creativity and spirited driving.

For more than 60 years, the Mini has been one of the most beloved and instantly recognisable cars on the road.
