ICONIC publisher Haynes has released a new book that provides an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at Oxford’s Mini plant.

Haynes is known for practical books showing readers how to take their cars apart and repair them, with this publication being the first to show the opposite.

Building a Mini takes readers on a tour of the Cowley plant where the famous car has been built since 2001.

It offers an illustrated, step-by-step insight into the processes, equipment and people involved in creating the quintessentially English cars.

The book, published this month, costs £22.99 and can be found at haynes.co.uk.
