Restored in 2018, including body, mechanics and interior
1,300 cm3 Metro engine with Cooper carburettors
Same registered owner since 1976
Stylish first generation Mini with Cooper design and power
Very good condition inside and out
The Appeal
Issigonis designed a small city car, but British Leyland - and the Mini's buyers - had other plans. On the road and on the racetrack, the factory Cooper and modified in-house models gave the Mini a new role: that of giant killer.
This pretty 1969 Mini Mk2 takes this theme to the extreme. Its pure Cooper looks hint at what's under the bonnet: a 1,300 cm3 Metro A-Series engine fitted with Cooper carburettors.
The car was acquired by the vendor in 1976 and used for a few years before being put out to dry. It was restored in 2018, body, mechanical and interior, and has been used only sporadically since. The result is a car that arrives on the market in very good condition, as the photos show. As a powerful alternative to a factory Cooper - and certainly a better performer - this car is stylish and well finished and should certainly offer plenty of fun.
This sale is subject to Car & Classic's terms and conditions. By bidding and/or placing a bid, you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means that consumer rights arising from European consumer protection legislation do not apply. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's terms and conditions.
✓ We ask that a non-refundable fee is paid if you are the lucky winner of the auction or if your bid is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for specific fees.
✓ This vehicle is "sold as is", on an "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and it is customary to carry out a full vehicle inspection prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
✓ VAT is included in the buyer's deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final offer or tender price, as specified in the advert.
✓ We want the transaction to go as smoothly as you do, which is why UK-registered cars and motorbikes offered for sale on Car & Classic are HPI checked to ensure they have no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and are not financially pledged, allowing you to bid with confidence.
✓ We also check whether vehicles are registered as written off as part of a total loss at the time the advert is placed on Car & Classic and provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the status of the vehicle and it is always worth carrying out a full vehicle history check before making an offer on it.
✓ Buyers are responsible for the collection or delivery of the vehicle. Importing vehicles may incur additional customs duties and import taxes. If you wish, we can recommend a third party transport company who can assist you. For more details and to speak to the team, email [email protected].
Car & Classic's secure payment system protects buyers and sellers. At the end of the auction, the winning bidder transfers payment into a third-party escrow account. Once the transfer of the vehicle is complete, both parties confirm they are happy with the sale and the money is released to the seller.
