The instantly recognisable Mini Cooper Sport 500 with large body coloured extended wheel arches, 2 driving lamps and 2 fog lamps and a large bore chrome tailpipe finisher.
Finished in stunning British Racing Green Metallic paintwork with platinum silver roof, door mirrors and bonnet stripes. The paintwork is flawless as you would expect from such a low mileage original example. Complemented by the Cooper Sport silver twin coachline and Cooper decals on the rear wings. Unmarked chrome all round and perfect scratch free tinted original glass with the etched chassis numbers in place.
All original 6 big lights... Wipac headlights along with the full bank of Rallye-Style fog and spot lamps, high mounted stop lamp and Carello rear light units.
The underside is as new, all original from factory and still displays the quality control paper stickers proving this one has never seen any rain... Stunning
Filling the extended Cooper Sport wheel arches are the original unmarked and never refurbished 13 x 6 inch Cooper Sport Alloy Wheels. Fitted with all matching original 175/50 R13 Dunlop SP Sport 2000 tyres, the space-saver spare has never been fitted.
Brakes - Servo assisted, diagonally split dual circuit system with front discs and drum rears.
Handling is razor sharp as you would expect from a Mini Cooper, rack & pinion steering, and independent suspension with telescopic hydraulic dampers.
Fitted with the 1275cc, 4-Cylinder, transverse OHV engine with electronic twin-point fuel injection. The engine and engine bay are fully detailed and display all of the original factory stickers and visual aid plastic information cards which are all too often discarded.
On the road she drives like a dream, super responsive and slick gear changes... Pure Mini magic
