Ordered new by Madonna L Ciccone and registered to The Ciccone 1989 Trust on 02/ 10/ 02. This Mini Cooper S was used as a runabout by Madonna when she was living in the UK and married to Guy Ritchie. There are several paparazzi photo's of Madonna nipping around London in the Mini carrying out school runs with her daughter or heading off to the recording studio. Even the previous destinations logged in the sat nav still contain several Madonna related destinations. The Mini gets mentioned in the lyrics of her 'American Life' track in verse 5 with Madonna singing 'I drive my Mini Cooper, and I'm feeling super-dooper'. Madonna also mentions the Mini with reference to the forthcoming congestion charge when interviewed on the Jonathan Ross show. The history file contains several documents such as the V5 and old insurance documents with Madonna and Guy Ritchie's names recorded. The Mini was specified with just about every possible option at the time with the non factory addition of privacy glass. When the Cowley plant workers building the car knew it was going to Madonna they all signed inside the bodyshell and under the bonnet. After four years of use by Madonna the Mini was then sold onto her personal driver who then stored the car away. Having only covered 25, 000 miles and in pristine original condition this piece of Madonna memorabilia has the potential to become a very valuable piece of music history.
