As part of their 60th anniversary celebrations Mini has been collecting stories from 1959 - 2019. We helped source music for Robert's comeback story, following themes of darkness, hope and friendship.
Robert’s MINI has been there for him at the darkest times of his life. A horrifying open-water incident left Robert unable to walk and – even worse for him – drive.
He spent months in physical rehabilitation, thinking about his John Cooper Works MINI and would daydream of being on the road again.
His will to drive, combined with help from his family and his best friend Ali, saw him through a very painful period. Now, more than two years on, Robert is back behind the wheel completing cross-country drives and making big plans for his MINI future.
