The car, whose first generation was designed by Frank Stephenson, draws inspiration from the original Mini<\/span>, which was manufactured by the British Motor Corporation<\/span> and its successors from 1959 to 2000. The name of the car’s brand, MINI<\/span>, is all-capitalized to distinguish it from its predecessor. Development of the first generation had been done between 1995 and 2001 by Rover Group<\/span> in Gaydon, United Kingdom and BMW AG<\/span> in Munich, Germany. During this development phase, there was continual contention between the two design groups, especially concerning the positioning of the car, Rover<\/span> wanted a straight economy car, whilst BMW<\/span> supported a small, sporting car. Ultimately, BMW<\/span>prevailed, and in 1999, they assumed control over the entire project following the departure of BMW<\/span>‘s CEO, Bernd Pischetsrieder. When BMW<\/span> divested itself of Rover<\/span> in 2000, BMW<\/span> elected to retain the Mini project, and to move the planned production site of the car from Rover’s Longbridge plant, (the former production plant of the traditional Mini) to BMW<\/span>‘s Oxford plant in Cowley, Oxford, United Kingdom (what was historically the Pressed Steel Company body plant).<\/p>\n

The vehicles produced during the 2001 to 2006 model years (unofficially, the “Mk I Mini<\/span>“) included four hatchback models (referred to by Mini<\/span> as the Cooper Hardtop<\/span>): the basic “Mini One<\/span>“, the diesel-engined “Mini One\/D<\/span>“, the sportier “Mini Cooper<\/span>” and the supercharged “Mini Cooper S<\/span>“; in 2005, a convertible roof option was added to the Mk I<\/span> line-up. In November 2006, BMW<\/span> released a re-engineered version of the Mini Hardtop<\/span> (unofficially the “Mk II Mini<\/span>“) as a 2007 model-year vehicle. The Mk II<\/span> is currently[update] available in the original Hardtop<\/span>and Convertible<\/span> body styles (the latter being introduced as a 2009 model). A third Mk II<\/span> body style, an estate called the Clubman<\/span>, was introduced as a 2008 model.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
