• A real Austin Mini Cooper that looks as well as it drives.
It has so much charm and character and is a fantastic driver. Owners club member and enthusiast owned for many years. It is ready to be enjoyed as a display car or even for some light rallying adventures, either way, this is a turn-key Cooper.
Genuine Cooper S front braking system fitted by Bill Richards Racing, Cooper S 4. 5J period-correct reverse rim wheels lined beautifully with the expensive and desirable Dunlop SP Aquajet tyres to give it that perfect period Cooper look.
Having been rebuilt by famous Mini engineer and racer Bill Richards in the past and more recently again by another well-regarded specialist the car is a hoot to drive. This little pocket rocket is nimble and chirpy, has a tight gearbox, excellent oil pressure, starts the first time and is genuine fun to drive!
Structurally very good, I have numerous detailed photos highlighting all the panels and common problem areas. Floors are good, chassis and A-posts solid and with just a little bubble on the lower drivers door area this car otherwise is up there with the very best.
During these difficult times, I appreciate that viewing may not be possible, therefore we have taken many additional detailed photographs and videos for the benefit of any interested buyer. Feel free to contact for more info or the additional files available or to arrange and non-contact, socially distant viewing or professional inspection.
