Mini Cooper In Detail: 1961-1971 Mk I-III Mini Cooper In Detail: 1961-1971 Mk I-III
by John Parnell
All car enthusiasts would agree that producing a sporting version of
the Mini was a very good idea. Such a good idea, in fact, that the
Mini Cooper enjoyed enormous popularity, was almost unbeatable in
race and rally, and provided the inspiration for the whole breed of
hot hatches that flourished from the 1970s on. When the Mini was
launched in 1959 both Press and public soon realized that the little
car could be flung about with abandon. It had handling and road
hugging qualities far beyond the performance that its lowly 34bhp
engine could provide, and sporting drivers cried out for more power,
though something would have to be done about the Minis tiny drum
brakes to cope with it. When the 997cc Mk I Cooper arrived in 1961
their prayers were answered, and with the introduction of the
1275cc S model their cup ran over. The author opens with an
exposition of the background to the announcement of the first Mini
Cooper and goes on to give highly detailed descriptions of all
models and variants, covering every aspect of the chassis, running
gear, engines and transmissions. He also discusses the changes
made to specifications and equipment during production. The history
of the cars in competition is studied, and there is advice on the
practicalities of owning any Mk I to Mk III model today, including
common problems, parts availability, maintenance and
preservation. With its in-depth examination of the immortal Mini
Coopers this book provides an unrivalled store of knowledge for the
many owners and enthusiasts who care passionately about them.
