Quick common question.

Roughly, how many Classic Minis are left? I've found that over 5,000,000 were made.



The final production number of Minis produced is 5,387,862.

Could some people quickly write a sentence about why you read Mini Magazine and why it attracts you, and your age.

Thanks >_<

This isn't last minute at all :angel:



I read Mini Magazine and have done since it's birth in 1996, because they have the best cars featured, are more down to earth and it's a good quality magazine too. Oh and I'm only 42 years young, although I look about 19.................


Honest.

Around Summer 1991, but as somebody posted earlier that was initially available on a quarterly base before becoming a monthly magazine some time in 1992.

Mini World Magazine originally came from the same people who sold the now defunct 'Cars & Car Conversions' magazine.

That had been around for years and in August 1989 the Minis history (it had just turned 30 years of age) was comprehensively covered. So much so that the entire magazine that month was dedicated to the Mini.

So I guess they realised there was a demand for a dedicated Mini magazine.

I'm 18, i bought my first mini magazine at the age of 7, because my dad had a Black Mini City at the time and 10+ before that >_<

I'm now a subscriber.
