Mini Top Of The Line In Performance

It had been in August 1959 that a talented designer named Sir Alec Issigonis breathed existence in to the MINI

. Regarded as a truly hip vehicle, the Mini (introduced towards public since the Austin Seven) was originally fitted with an 850cc 34bhp motor. It's an easy & agile car that may accommodate four adults. Fast forward to the on-going year. The 2010 Mini John Cooper Convertible, with its 1.6-liter, four -cylinder unit and revved up direct fuel injection, shows the transformation that the popular car or truck has undergone all through the years.

It is the 1960s that the Mini is best remembered for. The 1st Mini Cooper hit the streets in 1961, powered by a 997cc engine with 55bhp. Automotive racing driver John Cooper developed the souped-up version on the Mini. In 1962, the Austin Seven was renamed Austin Mini. Then in 1963, 1071-cc engine with 70 brake horse power were incorporated inside Austin/Morris Mini Cooper 1071S.The Cooper S soared in popularity when the 91bhp Works spec vehicles won the Monte Carlo Rally from 1964 to 1967. In 1967 the mini underwent changes, notably wider rear windscreen, altered rear light clusters, and a new grille.

The Mini Clubman was launched in the marketplace in 1969. Between the years 1969 to 1980, the Mini underwent various enhancements. It absolutely was restyled by former Ford designer Roy Haynes. More comforts were also added. Manufacture of the Mini Clubman and Mini Clubman Estate happened in the course of this era. In 1981, the Mini 1000 and Clubman estate incorporated enhanced equipment and renamed Mini HL. By 2000, BMW-engineered Mini Cooper debuted at the Paris Motor Show.

The MINI's phenomenal success is hinged on the fact that it's a concise vehicle perfect for crowded city streets. It's a brilliant mix of retro and up-to-the-minute style, and above all, fun to drive. Auto buffs can expect fresher styling, a lot more motor upgrades and new, modern features with the 2011 Mini.
