MINI has been owned by German car-making giant BMW since 2000, but it was already making waves in the automotive world many years before. In 1961, the iconic Morris Minor became the first British car to have sold more than one million units. Then, in 2014, the original Mini was named Britain's favourite car of all time an astounding 55 years after its launch, beating the Jaguar E-Type and even the McLaren F1 supercar. Despite the confidence of Aurelio Lampredi - Fiat's chief designer - that the Mini would never be a true rival because it was "so damned ugly", the enduring popularity of the model and its manufacturer suggest otherwise. There are over 460 MINI clubs in the UK. This guide discusses how much you can expect to pay to service your MINI.
