Description

The Mini Cooper was the sports version of the concept Mini that came out in 1959. Designed by Alec Issigonis, it surprised everyone with its philosophy of everything at the front, and a length of barely 3005 cm. It would have a career spanning over four decades from 1959 to 2000 before being replaced by a new generation designed by BMW. With its flag and sports finish, this 1997 version represented the ultimate evolution of the original concept, with a global production of 5,3 million units.
