Announced in October 1961, the Super Minx gave Rootes an expanded presence in the upper echelons of the family car market. It was bigger, more modern and accordingly more expensive than the mere Minx, so Rootes management decided to release it as a separate model, with ‘Super’ added to highlight its improvements. The new, sharply styled body rode on what were essentially standard Minx underpinnings. Alongside saloon and estate models, a fetching four-seater convertible was introduced in 1962, but disappeared from the line-up at the end of 1963. It is thought that approximately 200 were produced.
The Super Minx was certainly in tune with the times, with increasing salaries buoyed by a healthy economy. The engine had grown to 1.6-litres producing 58bhp, whisking it to 86mph with a 0-60 time of 22 seconds.

I have only three words to say about this sad old car: SBC.
This Would Be Great EV Conversion unless you Love 60 year old Engine Performance!
Hello! Yes, it is!
They so much missed it design wise, these cars looked old when new😂
Hello! Yes, it is! Old, but very nice.
@@Car_history_with_Andrew_It is certainly nice but lets face it, Fiat, Ford, Vauxhall and Austin Farina's looked more modern
@@Rammstein56Yes, the cars of the brands you mentioned were much better!
Really liked that Sunbeam they later made as an alternative for the Capri, that was cool.
@@Rammstein56 Are you talking about the Sunbeam Rapier H120 car, and the Ford Capri I car?
