Peters Mini Page

A Mini is a 1959 to Mid 90's (or 1967 in the US) Small British car. It was the first car to use a transfers mounted engine and transmission that is extremely common today. Total length is only 10 feet and about 1300lbs. Todays Mini is 2-1/2ft longer! Its a much larger car and you just don't see that till you see an old and new one together.

If you didn't see my Mini in the CARS page, here it is. It's a 1960 Morris Mini Mk1 (Cooperised 998).

Here I am with the Min at the All British Woodley Park car show Oct. 99. About 30 Mini's and 400 British cars total!

Just showing how ridiculously huge SUV's really are.

Up on 2 wheels!

Fly - be free!

Here's a couple real short Minis - as if they weren't already!

Even shorter! Crammed is an understatement.

How about a Mini shaped as an Orange? But why?

Now this is weird. A Mini Moke Military vehicle. Notice the sidecar!

Here's a Mini cut in half. Lot more room inside than you'd expect. 80% is interior.

What do you call 24 people in a Mini? A world record! And very very friendly!

Whats the lowest Mini? Only 30 inches tall.

And another super low Mini

What's the longest Mini? 35 feet long! Used for the National Lottery in England.

Proof positive that Minis are indeed small. Or is it the bike is big?

Now that's a strange paint job! I took this picture in England March 1997.
A 4 wheel drive Mini? Chassis said to be Land Rover based.
