Why We Still Love Minis

05.16.2011 · Posted in Car & Truck

Ah, the Mini, the iconic symbol of the 1960s, the car that evokes nostalgia like a Michael Cain comedy accent and a psychedelic Beatles film. Why do we Love The Mini? Well, for so many reasons, from the front drive, space saving body of the prototype to the much larger BMW MINI, this is a car that epitomises UK cool.

Even people who are not particularly interested in cars love vintage cars. Vintage Minis attract a lot of attention especially if they have been well maintained. The Mini has the added advantage of being perceived as cool. It may not be the fastest car in the world, but because of the Italian Job film has a reputation for being nippy. In other parts of the world the fact that it is so quintessentially British gives it even more cache. The fact that the Mini is so British makes it even cooler and popular in countries like America.

The modern MINI made by BMW is also perceived as cool. Their latest concept model, The Rocketman, is especially cool even the name invokes feeling of nostalgia and chic.

The new MINI Rocketman has instantly recognisable weight optimised 18 inch carbon wheels, a full colour 3D centre stage display, wide opening, double hinged doors and adaptive lighting to suit the driver’s personal needs. It is also 300mm less in length than the and the piece de resistance, which will no doubt cement an even longer reign as car of cool, a full length glass roof with glow in the dark strips outlining the Union Jack!

Whatever happens with the new MINI there are so many Mini cars out there on the road there is no danger that they will be forgotten. They will always have a place in people’s hearts.
