This Rover Mini is a characterful classic city car, in sporting ‘Cooper’ guise. It is powered by a 1-litre carburettor-fed inline-four, driving the front wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. This Mini Cooper was originally delivered to Japan before being exported to Australia, where it passed the Compliance process in September 2021. The odometer indicates 1,847 km, though this is not warranted. Build year: 1992 The car is finished in black, punctuated by a white roof, white mirrors, and chrome bumpers and grille. The cabin is trimmed in grey cloth complete with striped seat centres and red carpets. It rides on a set of black 10-inch four-spoke alloy wheels with a polished lip and Falken tyres. Equipment includes winding front windows, pop-out rear windows, air conditioning, and a Kenwood CD stereo. One key accompanies the sale. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess exterior and interior condition. The car was last serviced in September 2024 at an indicated 1,838 kilometres by Summer Shine Car Care, who tuned up the engine and carburettor, repaired the clutch pump, fixed an oil leak, and replaced the engine mount, right rear hub bearing, rack end, tie rod end, rack boot, left headlight, and all four tyres. Summer Shine Car Care also repaired the dashboard, front passenger seat, fitted a used air conditioning compressor, re-gassed the air conditioning system, and replaced the interior door trim, horn, right seatbelt assembly, air conditioning belt. The Mini effectively rewrote the rulebook for small car design upon its release in 1959 and continued in production largely unchanged until 2000. This example features wider arches courtesy of its ‘Cooper’ configuration and is finished in a timeless monochromatic colour scheme. Having been fitted with several replacement parts during its last service, it would make a stylish and usable addition to any collection, as well as a charming classic cruiser for any enthusiast.
