The Mark IV was introduced in 1976, though British Leyland was already working on a new small car expected to replace the Mini before long. From 1977 the rear light clusters included reversing lights, and in 1980 the engine was upgraded to the improved A-Plus unit from the new Metro in 998 cc form, which was the only engine left. The Metro launched in 1980, and the Mini outlasted it. Its model years run from 1976 to 1984.
