Vehicle Description
Having been sold for over 41 years, the Mini Cooper is one of the
most recognized and loved cars ever built. It is as much as a pop
icon as it is basic and economical transportation. While it was
designed as a simple economy car by the brilliant Sir Isaac
Issigonis, the Mini was pretty much classless and was loved by
royalty and lower class alike. It was built and sold all around the
world and came in a variety of body styles and engines. It lived
through tons of brand changes and the last models built in 2000
were still based on the original 1959 model.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this cheeky Mini Cooper MK
VII by Rover. This Mini was built by Rover in the UK as the last
production model of the "True Mini". It appears like one of the
final cars produced with such upgrades like a full width dashboard,
airbag equipped steering wheel, new seats and upgraded climate
control. These end of production, Rover built Mini's, retained the
classic small packaging but are also upgraded with a 1275 CC inline
4-cylinder engine fed via fuel injection and managed with
electronic ignition. The engine's performance is transferred via a
4 speed manual gearbox and applied by front wheel drive technology.
The small engine is eager to rev and the car is much quicker than
you'd think. It drives like a little go cart!
Finished in Flame Red and optioned with the Sport Pak, this car is
as perfect as they come with only 842 original miles. The paint and
exterior is excellent. Chrome trim is perfect and period rally
lights, flares, and minilight wheels add to the charm. The interior
is likewise in perfect shape and looks as good as new. These last
of production Minis are extremely rare in the States and very few
will be in this condition. Originally imported from Holland and
owned by the current owner for three years and has been kept in a
climate controlled garage. Now is the chance to buy a rare example
of the fabulous Mini!
