Official Mini Cooper is the official Mini Cooper (Works) site, as in John
Cooper.
John Cooper was a car designer who developed the rear-engine Formula One racer and the lovable Mini Cooper. John Cooper started in the racing business as the son of
designer and driver Charles Cooper. Father and son founded the Cooper Car Co. in 1946 and established themselves as racing specialists out of a small British Motor Corp. garage. The duo found success in Formula Three in the early 1950s by
building a car with the engine placed behind the driver, an unorthodox concept at the time. Doubts that the layout could work with larger cars were put to rest in 1958, when Stirling Moss piloted a Cooper to victory in the Grand Prix of
Argentina, the first World Championship win for a rear-engine car. Cooper cars went on to win the Formula One constructors' title in 1959 and 1960. Within three years, rear-mounted engines were the standard for Formula One.
Cooper gained more fame by turning one of Britain's most lovable and enduring cars, the Mini, into a ferocious racer. First sold to the public in 1961, the Mini Cooper was a success in saloon and rally classes.
It was the first British car to win the European Rally Championship and took the checkered flag at the Monte Carlo Rally three times. Cooper was named a Commander of the Order of the British Empire for his services to the motor
industry.
