Can anyone give me the name of a good website which describes (with photos) the different models of mini? I haven't got one yet, but I want to do my research, however, there are so many different makes and models of the original style model - I'm looking for an older mini - not one made in 2000 or anything!

basically there were several versions of the mini

Saloon (round-nose, most common mini)
Clubman
Estate / Woody / Traveller
Van
Pickup

Since you want a older mini, you will be looking at Austins and Morris Mini's.

Thanks for your replys - I'l check out that website - I'm really looking to see what the difference is between all of the different models in style/engine etc. since there's so many different ones that you can buy! What are all of your opinions on the best model and make of mini??? The Cooper Sports? I'm a biker, so I need something with a bit of life in it! :tongue:
Thanks for your replies so far!

Ahhh www.austin-rover.co.uk, I could spend hours on there - no wait I have. :ohno:
Hope everyone voted in the best car BMC>Rover Group ever made, which was (unsurprisingly) the Mini. Was surprised that the Rover R8 series was in there, but then again they were massive when they launched them.
Oh there is also the Mini Moke if you want some (impractical) surfer cool B)
