Mini turns 60!

Happy Birthday!

The Mini was originally designed by Sir Alexander Issigonis for the former British Motor Corporation. The small car has become a big star over the years – especially in films such as The Italian Job. One thing that has not changed is that it is still made in Oxford, by BMW.

Even Mr Bean has been invited to the birthday party in Britain.

Mini seems to run in the Turley family.

We love our Mini. It drives like a go-kart. It’s fast (hubby got already flashed twice). It’s spacious: 4 adults, a baby and a dog or 7 suitcases or 5 big boxes of beer… we always find parking (well, the mirrors are a bit too big for Stuttgart parking garages… or am I just bad in parking???).

It wasn’t planned to get one in June. Now we are happy we have our Mini one. Happy birthday! To many many more miles together.
