Little Car BIG HEART

Fun, cute, all in ONE!!! The Mini Cooper, covertered by many. Why?? Maybe, due to its "cut" fun size, performance or even durability. Well, we've all watched Mr Bean movies. Now, what car does he drive. Of course, a mini cooper. At first, an orange 1969 BMC Mini MK II (registration RNT 996H) was Mr. Bean's vehicle, but this was destroyed in an off-screen crash at the end of the first episode. From then on, the car was a 1976 model, applejack green in colour with a matte black bonnet. 

Mini Coopers a small economy car that was made by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000. The original is considered a British icon of the 1960s, and its space-saving front-wheel drive layout.

In 1976, the Mini became the first British car to produce a special edition - the Mini 1000 Special. Priced at £1406 (€1220), it came in Brooklands Green or Glacier White and featured a gold waist coachline, twin chrome door mirrors and reclining front seats. To reflect the fashion of the 70s, the interior had an orange-striped brushed nylon seat trim from the MGB range and dark orange safari carpets.

 
A Mini Cooper is the dream car for most women, but they are restricted due to its "costly" price for a little car, packed with alot of goodness, with prices ranging from $35, 000 upwards!!! In a study conducted, it concluded that 70% of Minis were brought by women, 56% of Mini owners were married, 13% were younger than 24, 16% were older than 65 and that the main use for the Mini was as a second car to be driven in the city.




 So, lets learn to appreciate this Little Car with a BIG HEART!
