The Mini ‘Inspired by Goodwood’ was thoroughly reworked by Rolls Royce Design to create the most luxurious and opulent MINI ever conceived.
A limited-run special edition MINI, whose exterior and interior design is inspired by the finest materials and Rolls Royce’s commitment to absolutely flawless workmanship and presentation.
Number 907 of 1000 made, it is believed that 119 cars were delivered new to the UK. Of those 119 it’s believed that 19 were finished in Reef Blue, and 28 of the 119 cars were fitted with a manual gearbox.
Making this arguably the most desirable variant.

The opulent and exclusive interior is in truly excellent condition throughout with only some slight wear being evident on the driver’s seat bolster.
The dashboard, including the surrounds of the central instrument and the air vents, the centre console, carpet surfaces, the Lounge leather seats, the roof lining as well as the door, side and body pillar cladding boast the exclusive Rolls-Royce colour Cornsilk, a warm and natural shade of beige.
The upper section of the instrument panel, which is lined with extremely high-quality, soft full-grain leather, the dashboard and door handle surfaces are finished in Walnut Burr, a wood quality also exclusive to Rolls-Royce.
The black nappa leather dashboard top, Tipped Leather Cornsilk door linings as well as Piano Black surface finishes for the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel and the controls below the central instrument all provide additional quality-enhancing accents.
The matching black dials for the speedometer and rev counter bear the same typeface as their Rolls-Royce counterparts and the carpet mats have a deep-pile lambswool quality also featured in Rolls-Royce models.
The Exterior
Excellent condition
Good tyres on exclusive 17” multi-spoke alloy wheels
Reef Blue Metallic paint
In the rarer colour of Reef Blue the Mini presents itself extremely well with only a small scratch behind the passenger door and a light scuff on the front bumper, otherwise the car looks fantastic and every inch a Mini Rolls Royce.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.
Bid Amount
Increment
£0 to £9,999
£100.00
£10,000 to £49,999
£250.00
£50,000 to £99,999

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
