MINI: The True and Secret History of the Making of a Motor Car Main edition
Simon Garfield
In 1959, the first Mini was produced on an assembly line at Cowley, near Oxford. Designed for austerity and efficiency, the car came to represent individuality and classlessness. Today, the car is still produced at Cowley - it is now owned by BMW and called the MINI.
