Item DescriptionThis book tells the story of the Mini in South Africa, tracing its history from the arrival of the first fully assembled prototype in 1959 through to the final classic Mini produced at the Elsies River plant. Drawing on extensive research, contemporary motoring journals, newspaper cuttings, factory records and interviews with former Mini racing drivers and BMC/Leyland personnel, it provides a detailed account of the car’s South African development and production. The 15 chapters cover different Mini models, their performance on South African race tracks and the achievements of successful drivers, supported by numerous black-and-white and colour photographs. It also includes valuable information on BMC and Leyland South Africa and production records for other British marques assembled at the Blackheath plant.
