Mini Minor

Plant Oxford has built 602,817 Minis between 1959 and 1968, before manufacture was proceeded to Longbridge. Ever since 2001 more than 1.4 million new Minis have been built at the production site.
In total, above 6 million classic and new Mini’s have been traded after the car first went on sale in 1959.

This was a noteworthy day in the plant and car’s chronicle. Everybody at the plant are conceited and happy to be a part of both the legacy and the future of this car.
