Minis and Mini parts were marketed under other automaker names until Mini became a marque in its own right in 1969. The original driving force behind the development Mini parts for this vehicle was a search for efficiency. The Mini and Mini parts were originally designed as project in response to a worldwide fuel shortage. At this time gasoline rationing was the norm, and sales of large cars slumped.

All of the novel and elegant technical innovations applied to Mini parts resulted in a car with minimum overall dimensions yet maximized space for both passengers and luggage.
