The Mini was manufactured by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000.

The original is considered a British icon of the 1960's and its space-saving front-wheel drive layout allowing 80% of the car's floorpan to be used for passengers and luggage, influenced a generation of car makers.

In 1999, the Mini was voted the second most influential car of the 20th century behind the Ford Model T.

Initially, Minis were marketed under the Austin and Morris names until Mini became a marque in its own right in 1969.

The Mini was again marketed under the Austin name in the 1980's and was offered in a number of limited editions that usually included a special combination of trim and badging.
