 Innocenti
The Innocenti versions were often both better built and more luxuriously appointed than their UK counterparts, and a few have found their way to these shores over the years.
Of course, from 1965 onwards, Innocenti also built Minis (including Coopers) in Italy, and in 1975, they brought out their own re-bodied versions called the Leyland Innocenti Mini 90 and 120, with a three-door hatchback body styled by Bertone.
In 1990, De Tomaso sold Innocenti to Fiat, and the Innocenti Mini's days were numbered; production finally ceased with the closure of the factory in March 1993, but the Innocenti name lived on until 1996, on cars imported to Italy by Fiat (namely, the Yugo 45 and the Brazilian Uno-based Elba).

 Innocenti Mini
Prior to the launch of the Metro, the Innocenti was briefly available in the UK, and it continued to be sold as part of BL's range in many mainland European countries even after the Metro's appearance.
Sadly, that still hasn't happened, and indeed, BL has in the meanwhile sold its Italian subsidiary to automotive entrepreneurial whizz-kid Alejandro de Tomaso, who has continued to churn out Bertone's butch babies to the extent that they are now commonplace in practically all of Western Europe's major cities, except our own.
Thus it is to Loretta that our gratitude is due for so generously, and bravely, allowing her personal transport to fall into our hands for a few days to be subjected to the rigours of a full Motor road test.
