The Mark VII was the final version of the Classic Mini, with twin point injection and a front mounted radiator.

The basic Mini was the 1.3i, the other model in the range being the Mini Cooper, and production replaced the Mark VI in August 1996. The Mark VII was introduced at the end of the Mark VI.
