The R-Series BMW MINI had a lot to live up to. Launched in 2001, it
was riding in the wake of the classic 1959-2000 Mini. At the time, BMW
were going to have to create something as special and innovative as
its longstanding predecessor in order to silence the naysayers. And
they did. Since its launch in 2001, BMW's modern MINI has become the
pinnacle of small yet funky family cars in the premium small (and
sometimes not so mall) car segment. Now in its third generation,
having unveiled the new F-Series in 2014, BMW MINI offers 3- and
5-door hatchback models and convertibles, the estate Clubman, the
five-door Countryman, the Coupe, the Roadster and the three-door
crossover Paceman. MINI enthusiast and motoring journalist Sophie
Williamson-Stothert explores the journey from 1959 to the present day,
covering design and development of the new MINI, launch and reception
by the press, its many model variations and special editions, and an
owner's and buyer's guide. Superbly illustrated with 170 colour
photographs.
