AROnline are looking for anecdotes, comments and contributions for a possible future article on 'The social history of the Mini'
"The automotive media loves a major anniversary, it gives it an excuse to trot out special articles on the product in question and 2019 is no exception – the BMC Mini will be under the microscope.
So, the big one is the 60th anniversary of our beloved Mini, the numerically most successful car to emerge from the British motor industry and arguably the one major contribution Britain made to the evolution of the automobile.
Once again the statistics will be trotted out, 5.5 million built, the motor sport success, the cars indelible association with the swinging sixties and whether it actually made money for its manufacturer. The Mini is indeed a British automotive icon but amid all the facts and figures, no one has actually tried to document the social history of the Mini."
