A Present for the Car Enthusiast in Your Life.
PHOTOGRAPH
I photographed this car at a Classic Car Rally in Forest Row, East Sussex
HISTORY
This is a picture is one of the earlier Minis with the internal pull string door openers, sliding windows and floor headlight dipping switch. It is considered an icon of 1960s British popular culture. Its space-saving transverse engine, front-wheel drive layout – allowed 80% of the area of the car's floor pan to be used for passengers and luggage. In 1999, the Mini was voted the second-most influential car of the 20th century, behind the Ford Model T, and ahead of the Citroën DS and Volkswagen Beetle.It was manufactured by the English-based British Motor Corporation (BMC) and its successors from 1959 until 2000 when BMW took it over and it lost its charm.
PICTURE FRAME - 4 x 6in Photograph in a Black or White Coloured frame overall size 180 x 130 x 34mm with a Glass front. There is a Strut on rear so that it can sit on the window sill or desk.
