Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original Mini was offered in hundreds of variants during its extraordinarily long, 40-year production run. First there were the standard Austin Seven and Morris Mini-Minor saloon, van, pick-up and estate versions. Then came a whole family of Mini-Coopers, the upmarket Wolseley and Riley models, the Moke and the Clubman. It went on from there until there were dozens of models and special editions around the globe, and individual countries applying their own modifications to the Mini. All of these are covered in The Complete Catalogue of the Mini, with photographs, descriptions, specifications, performance figures, and production dates and numbers. Whether you want to look up or identify a particular Mini or simply absorb the enormous range and variety of the Mini's incarnations, this, never attempted before, is the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The R-Series BMW MINI had a lot to live up to. Launched in 2001, it was riding in the wake of the classic 1959-2000 Mini. At the time, BMW were going to have to create something as special and innovative as its longstanding predecessor in order to silence the naysayers. And they did. Since its launch in 2001, BMW's modern MINI has become the pinnacle of small yet funky family cars in the premium small (and sometimes not so mall) car segment. Now in its third generation, having unveiled the new F-Series in 2014, BMW MINI offers 3- and 5-door hatchback models and convertibles, the estate Clubman, the five-door Countryman, the Coupe, the Roadster and the three-door crossover Paceman. MINI enthusiast and motoring journalist Sophie Williamson-Stothert explores the journey from 1959 to the present day, covering design and development of the new MINI, launch and reception by the press, its many model variations and special editions, and an owner's and buyer's guide. Superbly illustrated with 170 colour photographs.

Book excerpt: Mini celebrates 60 amazing years of this iconic car, from its revolutionary introduction to the popularity of its new-generation models. The first two-door Mini, introduced in 1959 and built until 2000, revolutionized automotive design with its innovative front-wheel-drive layout that made the car appear bigger on the inside than the outside. In 1999, the Mini was voted the second most influential car of the 20th century, behind the Ford Model T. Designed for British Motor Corporation (BMC) by Sir Alec Issigonis and manufactured in England, Australia, Spain, Belgium, Chile, Italy, Portugal, South Africa, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Yugoslavia, the Mini was as successful in competition as it was on the street, winning the Monte Carlo Rally four times from 1964 through 1967. Originally built by BMC, the Mini’s later parent company, Rover, was acquired by BMW in 1994. In 2000, BMW sold most of the Rover Group but retained the Mini brand. The last and 5,387,862nd original Mini rolled off the production line in October 2000. In July 2001, BMW launched production of the new-generation of Mini which was soon joined by Countryman, Clubman, convertible, Cooper Works, and numerous special editions. Nearly 20 years later, the new Minis remain as popular as the original from 1959.

Book excerpt: Voted the second most influential car of the 20th century after the Model T Ford in 1999, the original Mini – as Sir Alec Issigonis’ classic design of 1959 inevitably became known – was a car that helped to define an era. In an age when London was swinging, when Carnaby Street and the King’s Road in Chelsea were perceived as the style capital of the world, the Mini was the last word in ‘cool’ motoring. Pictured with the stars of the age, including the designer Mary Quant, the car was to be successful in motor sport and, as one of the last great products of British designed engineering. In production for more than 50 years, by which stage almost 5.4 million of the model in its various guises had been made worldwide, the original Mini was to be supplanted in 2000 by a newer and larger model – the MINI – produced, (following the takeover of Rover Group) by the German company BMW. This is the story of the Mini and MINI in its various guises throughout its fascinating history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here for the first time is a short history of the small car from 1885 to 2000 and an examination of what came before, during, but not after the Mini, including the fairly complete story of the Mini and Mini Cooper from 1959 to 2000. James Ruppert is not used to spending very much money on cars, so when he decided to finish the restoration of his 1964 Cooper, started in 1979, the bills started to mount up and mentally he began to fall apart. Bought for 200 and a bottle of wine, it would eventually cost almost one hundred times that to finish. Serial Mini owner James Ruppert explains how not to buy, run or restore a classic car, and why owning one might be some form of unwellness. He's a man who can't be trusted with an old car, but can be relied upon to explain how the Mini came about and what it was up against throughout the decades. From the author of the critically acclaimed, The British Car Industry Our Part in its Downfall, and the Mercedes Montagu of Beaulieu winning The German Car Industry, My Part in its Victory, here is the full story of his seriously mistreated Mini and how the small car came to rule the world. James Ruppert has been a motoring journalist since the 1980s. He wrote for Car for almost twenty years, is a special correspondent for Autocar and has written for national newspapers including The Daily Telegraph, Sunday Times and The Independent. He coined the term Bangernomics, all about running vehicles on a budget and wrote the Bangernomics Bible. Ruppert is also the creator of the '70s superhero Spencer Haze comic strip.
