An ad from 1963. Note the unique door window. Sliding windows aren't ideal for our hot and humid climate. So, as an option, the distributor modded it to winding, using the larger sliding glass as the main glass and trimming the smaller piece and fixing it dead. Winding machinism was from the Morris Minor.
Malayan Motors are still around, still selling Jaguars, Bentley, Bugatti and Volvo trucks.
Anyone has any ads from that era?

I know someone who will be really thrilled with that add because she owns at least 3 1960's Mini Supers herself.

Austin Mini Super this time: -
Australian built Mini Clubman brochure/ad: -
But I've got quite a large collection of Mini brochures hidden away.

car tho, they were too tame. BMC/BL really didnt have much of an idea when it came to advertising and marketing.
Although you could say the mini sold itself anyway so why did they need to...? The 60s ads for the beetle were
great in my opinion, if only mini had had something similar, heres a few examples, genius.
cheers, chilly
