"One good ride deserves another. Race through the ages with MINI and see how a big idea in 1959 started a chain reaction that's been charging forward ever since."

Funny ad, mab01uk.
Do you remember a funny ad with classic Minis many years ago ? A dogfight (aerial combat) with Germans (or Japanese), a prehistoric "chase" in a Mini Moke, etc ?
Knowing you, you must have a copy.

Cheers,

Michel

From memory I think the ad you mention was included as a bonus on a Heritage video which included the film of Raymond Baxter introducing the revised Mini range of 1978 for BL Car salesmen. I do have a copy on vhs so will check later......it may be on youtube by now?

that's a great advert, only missing the showers of rust particles as the classic minis fell over...

Mini Through The Ages (1969) - 8 minutes
"A wonderfully zany film made for the press launch of the Clubman version of the Mini. We are reminded of the role of the Mini down the centuries: Moke with prehistoric man; Mini Cooper in Caesar’s Rome, chivalry in Medieval England, not forgetting the Battle of Britain and, of course, the Swinging Sixties. They do not make them like this any more!"
