The Mini Van was a commercial panel van (in US English, a sedan delivery) rated at ¼-ton load capacity.
Built on the longer Traveller chassis but without side windows, it proved popular in 1960s Britain as a cheaper alternative to the car: it was classed as a commercial vehicle and as such carried no sales tax.
A set of simple stamped steel slots served in place of a more costly chrome grille.
The Mini Van was renamed as the Mini 95 in 1978, the number representing the gross vehicle weight of 0.95 tons.
521,494 were built.
