Well the design was started in 56. Someone once gave me a large book from Adsa on formula one racing. The cover photo? Jackie Stewart in a Formula 3 Cooper. Happily for this forum, it had basically a 970S engine in it, complete with titanium rods.

Cooper race cars go back way before that, not just in formula 1, I dont see how it relates to the mini though? M&S have had this error going for ages, i know some people on IMMCC "infromed"(/Complained) About it, you'd think such a big company would do some research before releasing something really wouldnt you We're talking a good 3 years back now, too.
