REARVIEW.

Just one year after Paddy Hopkirk and Henry Liddon clinched MINI’s first Monte Carlo victory in the Mini Cooper S, Timo Mäkinen and Paul Easter returned to repeat destiny at the 1965 competition in a Mini Cooper S with the starting number #52.

Since its inception in 1911, the Monte Carlo Rally has been notorious for testing the limits of automotive innovation. From the tightest corners to the steepest gradients, spanning snow-covered passes and country roads, MINI has proved time and time again that compact can conquer all.
