What year did the mini come out

Yes, in the United States, but that was not the official launch. The original post was correct. The One and Cooper began production and was sold in 2001 in some markets in Europe.

Heh, I think I saw that green one right around that time. They brought it over to Moffett Field on a trailer with an old Mini. Probably to do some photography nearby the interesting stuff they had (and still have!) over there. Things like Hangar 1, some of the research aircraft, a wind tunnel model of the Space Shuttle, various wind tunnels, and so on.

My first was an Austin Mini, first reg'd in 1964, CHK546B. Bought it in 1968 in the UK and imported it into the US that same year. 848CCs of pure fun with twin SUs!

Blast from the past, remember those days.
