Now on display at the Design Museum in London, MINI has announced the debut of the MINI Aldridge Special. Designed by legendary artist, illustrator and graphic designer Alan Aldridge, the MINI exhibit entitled ‘The Man with Kaleidoscope Eyes’ recreates the iconic cover of the Sunday Times Magazine, which in 1965 featured a classic Mini painted in his own inimitable style. The updated interpretation of this image, using a new MINI One as the canvas for Alan’s design, has again been featured on the cover in the 12 October 2008 edition of the publication.

MINI

Mini (stylized as MINI) is a British automotive brand founded in 1969, owned by German BMW since 2000, and used by them for a range of small cars assembled in the United Kingdom, Austria, and the Netherlands. The word Mini has been used in car model names since 1959, and in 1969 it became a brand in its own right when the name "Mini" replaced the separate "Austin Mini" and "Morris Mini" car model names.
