The Mini has enjoyed an enduring appeal since it was created in 1959 by Alec Issigonis of Morris Motors Ltd. The design broke the mould with its transverse-engine, front-wheel-drive layout and compact dimensions. It revolutionised the small car to become the best-selling British car in history with production of 5.3 million units. Its fundamental character remained unchanged until a 2001 relaunch.
