MINI – George Harrison Homage

MINI has recreated George Harrison's 1960s Mini Cooper to be auctioned for charity Apart from the Mini nothing is more redolent of the ’60s than the Beatles – the band who changed the world. And these two sixties icons came together in 1966 when the Beatles manager, Brian Epstein, presented each of the Fab Four with a Mini Cooper S – as a thank-you for making him a wealthy man!
