It was forty years ago today. This book is a celebration of the Mini, Britain’s greatest little car, and all that it stands for. A 160 page, full-colour, fully illustrated book of the Mini’s life.
The Mini tells the story of the car’s development over time and the story of how mini owners have changed and the uses to which the car has been put.
A socio-political examination of the Mini as a statement of class, sex, status and environmental intention. The book is also full of tales of racing, naughty goings-on and the Mini’s life in films and music.
The book includes original and contemporary photography, and features interviews with famous, and infamous people who have known and loved Minis, people such as Sterling Moss, Jamie Blandford, Jeremy Clarkson, Damon Hill, Twiggy, David Bailey, George Harrison, and Julie Christie.
The book also includes the history of workers struggles, rust, wood, neglect decline and of the rebirth of the mini. Why the Mini endured for so long and finally the authors’ highly subjective choice of the best Mini ever built, including pictures and drawings.

hardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
