Does anyone remember the old Mini advertising campaign used on Australian TV in the 70's.
Its where my signature comes from. My wife and 2 boys thought i made it up myself, not that clver I'm afraid.
Anyway, if anyone remembers the entire ad let me know. I have tried to find it but with no success.

Yeah I remember the tune well - it was one of those ditties that sticks in your head forever!!! The words are a bit fuzzy tho.........................

I remember something along the lines of:

I luv my Min I luv my car
I drive him everywhere
I have more fun than everyone
Driving here and there
Mini-Mini-Mini-Mini
Mini-Mini-Mini-Mini

I love my Mini,
I love my car.
I drive it anywhere.
We have more fun than anyone
Just driving everywhere.

It's fun to drive
It's cheap to run
It doesn't use much gas.
It fits in tiny parking spots
And saves me lots of cash.

Mini, Mini, Mini, Mini
Mini, Mini, Mini, Mini


Good jingle, but the fact it was set in a circus with clowns driving the Mini did little to make the car seen as a serious road car.

I think that may have been the last Australian TV ad campaign for the Mini, from memory.

Watto.

The jingle got extensive airplay on Sydney radio.

Doesnt use much petrol,
Doesnt cost much cash,
If you cant find a parking spot,
Stick it up your..mini,mini,mini

I have the original vinyl copy of the 1965 B.M.C mini minor jingle. It advertises the mini deluxe Track1 55 sec Track2 25 sec
