Mini
The Mini is a small car that was created by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000. The original is seen as an icon of the 1960s. Its space-saving front-wheel-drive layout (that allowed 80% of the area of the car’s floorpan to be used for passengers and luggage) influenced a generation of car-makers. The vehicle is believed to be the British equivalent to its German contemporary, the Volkswagen Beetle, which revelled similar popularity in North America.
