THE TRANSCRIPTION

Okay, let's get started. Hello everybody, my name is Tània and I’m student at Casa Nostra School. Today I talk about the interesting car: the Mini.

The Mini is a small car that was made by the British Motor Corporation from 1959 until 2000.

The car of the 1960 was a tiny car called Mini. The designer was an engineer, Alec Issigonis. He designs a car which was much smaller than others. It was only tree meters long. It cost 500£, so became very popular with young people and families.

The royalty used to drive Minis as well. For example, Prince Charles arrived at university in a Mini in 1967.

By the late 1960, the company was producing enormous quantities of Minis in factories in England.

Some people used to paint their Minis in bright colours. Other people tried to get as many people as possible inside them. They want to get a new world record!

By the end of the decade, the Mini had even been the star of a popular British film called The Italian Job. It had won a lot of races too.

Although the car became less fashionable in later decades, people had bought over five million Minis by the year 2000.

Then in 2001, a new Mini was born. The new Mini was bigger and more modern car. But it was just as stylish as the classic Mini.

Today, the German car company produces the Mini at this factory in Oxford.

The factory has got a lot of computers and robots to do some of the work. Factories didn't use to have these in the 1960. The factory makes over seven hundred Minis every day.

These days, you don't need to paint your own Mini – they are available in nearly any colour! The Mini was a 1960 icon that never really went out of fashion.

I think the Mini is a comfortable and fashionable car and I like it.

Thanks for listening to me.
