Meet "Danger Mouse"
He's a Rover Mini Cooper 1.3MPI Sportpack edition with low owners & mileage.
Finished in the most amazing two-tone livery of Amaranth purple with a white roof, stripes, side decals & mirrors. Matching sports pack arches cover the 13x6 inch Mini Cooper Sports pack wheels, these just look awesome. Of course everything else is chrome. Special mention needs to be made to the 4 lamps, 2 driving lights and 2 fog lamps, heres an extract from the original sales brochure..... "Six lights across that cheeky nose, just count em, talk about 'Ploughing the road' night driving will never seem the same again." The paint is absolutely stunning.
Internally is where these late Minis really shine. Opening the door you are greeted with the upgraded cream & black half leather interior with matching door cards, black carpet which just transform the feeling. The two-tone leather clad steering wheel paired with the wooden Cooper dash, cream leather gear knob and black door accessories just lift this above your standard Mini. Cream dials with speedo, rev counter and the extra centre 3 gauges including volts, clock & oil temperature. The drivers & passenger door pockets along with the glove box make for useable spaces.
Under the bonnet you'll find the punchy 1275cc MPI 8v engine producing 63 BHP with 70 ib-ft torque, getting to 60MPH in 12.2 seconds and going all the way to 90MPH, this is more than enough for modern driving and of course feels rather fast 4 inchs from the ground. Paired to 4 speed gearbox, this flies along. Mouse has travelled just 55,759 miles. Has a great service history and a comprehensive ownership record. NEVER been out in the rain! Running gear wise these had uprated suspension from factory.
These were £9995.00 plus the upgrades when new and are now trading at double that or even triple for a low milage/owner one. Like most other Minis these are increasing in value annually so why not get in the mix to win an appreciating British icon for a few pounds.
This is an exceptionally well cared for example in a stunning and rare colour combination that makes him collectible and valuable!
