Vehicle Description
This 1998 Rover Mini Cooper is a wonderfully preserved example of
one of Britain's most beloved automotive icons, finished in
Charcoal Grey with a white roof and classic bonnet stripes.
Recently imported from the UK and now registered in Massachusetts
with a clean title, this Mini shows just over 60,000 miles and
retains its charming right-hand-drive configuration.
Power comes from the fuel-injected 1.3-liter A-series inline-four,
paired with a 4-speed manual transaxle that delivers power to the
front wheels. This late-model example features multi-point fuel
injection (MPi) and front disc brakes, making it one of the most
refined and usable versions of the original Mini ever built. The
car rides on 12-inch Minilite-style alloy wheels, enhancing its
vintage rally look while maintaining practical drivability.
Inside, you'll find black leather seats with cream piping and
embossed Mini Cooper logos, surrounded by wood veneer trim on the
dash, door caps, and shift knob. A modern Sony stereo head unit
adds convenience without compromising the period charm. Details
like the white mirror caps, fender flares, and polished brightwork
complete its unmistakable silhouette.
Recent maintenance includes a December 2024 service with valve
adjustments, fresh fluids, and new ignition components. In early
2025, a new battery, right-side CV axle, and engine stabilizer
mount were installed. The car comes with two sets of keys and
extensive UK service documentation, showing a well-kept and
consistent ownership history.
This Mini Cooper blends timeless British design with
late-production reliability, making it ideal for collectors and
drivers alike. It is more than a conversation piece. It is a joy to
drive, light on its feet, and full of character. Built for
backroads, city streets, and smiles per mile, this Mini delivers a
driving experience that never gets old.
