The Mini came on the scene 60 years ago and over 6 decades, the passion has endured for the little car that was loved by just about every class in society. Thousands of events have been held all over the world to celebrate anniversaries and this year, the MINIfest returns in Malaysia for the second time to celebrate the MINI’s 60th anniversary.

The event will be held on Saturday, September 7 2019 (12 noon to 7 pm) at the Indoor Arena of Bukit Kiara Equestrian & Country Resort, Jalan Bukit Kiara, Kuala Lumpur. It’s going to be a fun day for MINIacs as MINI Malaysia has planned a host of exciting activities, all MINI-themed.

The little car that was loved by school teachers, royalty, bank robbers, racing drivers, filmstars… in fact, just about every class in society all over the world accepted the Mini. Over the decades, it has evolved but has remained an icon of the automobile industry and this year, it celebrates its 60th anniversary.

To commemorate this occasion, MINI Malaysia is offering 60 units of a limited-edition collector’s version. It is only available as the MINI Cooper S 3 Door variant but customers have a colour choice of New British Racing Green with Pepper White roof and mirror caps, or Melting Silver with Jet Black roof and mirror caps. Signature black bonnet stripes with Aspen White and British Oak pinstripes further underline the exclusivity.

The MINI 60 Years Edition

Nod to the past, looking to the future
“For over 60 years, MINI has captured the hearts of millions worldwide for its timeless motor racing spirit. With the MINI 60 Years Edition in the brighter and more eye-catching ‘New British Racing Green’ exterior paint finish, this exclusive model pays tribute to MINI’s British racing pedigree and paves the way for a new era. Captivating from every angle, the MINI 60 Years Edition radiates style and attitude – with a nod to the past, while looking towards an exciting future,” said Harald Hoelzl, MD of BMW Group Malaysia.

The MINI 60 Years Edition

In conjunction with the 60 Years Chili equipment package, the MINI 60 Years Edition features LED headlights, LED foglamps, white turn indicators and LED rear lights in the Union Jack design.

The exclusive side scuttle badging, which bears the anniversary model’s distinctive 60 years insignia, provides great individuality, while the logo projection shines down from the exterior mirror. The rear spoiler and exclusive 17-inch light alloy wheels in the 60 Years Spoke 2-tone style contribute to the distinct look of the exclusive car.

60 years theme inside
Inside, there’s a sports steering wheel wrapped with hand-stitched MINI Yours Walknappa Leather bearing the 60 Years insignia on the lower spoke. The insignia also adorns the front door entry strips. Leather upholstery in the exclusive MINI Yours Lounge 60 Years Dark Maroon is complemented by bold stitching, paying tribute to MINI’s heritage in craftsmanship.

The Cooper S uses a 2-litre 4-cylinder MINI TwinPower Turbo engine (192 bhp/280 Nm) and a 7-speed DCT Steptronic Sports Transmission. It can rocket to 100 km/h from standstill in a claimed 6.7 seconds, reach 235 km/h and yet consume fuel at a rate of up to 18.2 kms/litre (when driven moderately, of course). Needless to say, its sports suspension settings provide performance-oriented driving that is as fun as exhilarating as driving a go-kart.

The story of MINI has reach six decades and MINI Malaysia celebrates this momentous occasion with many ways like the launch of the 2019 MINI Cooper S Convertible, MINI 60 formation, and now, three particular MINIacs and their stories of love.

There are stories collected from three different individuals who share one common thing; their absolute love for MINIs. Check out their stories on how a car played a major role in their lives, growing up here in the country. (more…)

In celebration of MINI’s 60th anniversary here in Malaysia, MINI Malaysia is proud to announce their latest addition to their ever-growing line up of premium vehicles, the 2019 MINI Cooper S Convertible.

The new MINI Convertible is the climax of the 60th anniversary celebrations where MINI Malaysia has been offering super sweet deals in conjunction of this such as the 60 Months MINI Service + Repair Inclusive Program, MINIacs and Friends of MINI gatherings, and many more. And surprisingly, there will be more exciting news to come. (more…)

It’s been 60 years since the original Mini appeared on the roads and MINI Malaysia is celebrating the anniversary by giving customers a 60-month warranty (unlimited mileage) as well as 60 months of MINI Service + Repair Inclusive (MSR) Programme. The offer is for any new model or variant purchased and registered by August 31, 2019.

The 60 Months MINI Service + Repair Inclusive Programme is also applicable for fleet purchases, duty-exempted vehicles and the Returning Expert Programme (REP) customers.

“This year, we celebrate 60 years of British innovation, iconic design and thrilling go-kart handling. Since 1959, MINI has continued to push the boundaries whilst keeping the creative use of space, driving fun, style and individualisation at its core. As we celebrate our 60th anniversary, we are thrilled to extend the 60 Months MINI Service + Repair Inclusive Programme to all new MINI owners to deliver the complete Premium Ownership Experience,” said Harald Hoelzl, MD of BMW Group Malaysia.

Condition-based service approach
For those not familiar with the MSR Inclusive Programme, this uses a Condition Based Service (CBS) system, an approach that does not follow scheduled mileage or time intervals. Instead, maintenance is carried out based on the actual condition of the engine as it is used. Depending on how it is driven and other factors, the intervals could be longer or shorter.

The BMW Group was among the first manufacturers to introduce CBS in 2002 with the 7-Series. It was an evolution of BMW’s service indicator system and created a flexible, more economical maintenance schedule. Studies found that some owners enjoyed significant savings in maintenance costs in the longer run by not having to stick to scheduled service and replacement intervals.

The very first working prototype of the 2020 MINI John Cooper Works GP was recently previewed publicly for the first time as part of the 24 Hours Nürburgring pre-race programme and trust us when we say this, you will want one of these bad boys. (more…)
