"A brand new Rover Mini in the most exclusive and final luxury version, meticulously stored and maintained by a true enthusiast."

Description

The car was delivered by BMW in Gothenburg in the autumn of 2000, and the current owner P-O had ordered it as a white Cooper Sports. He quickly realized that the production of the final Rover Minis would be halted. Without hesitation, the offer to buy the possibly last imported copy, as well as the Knightsbridge version painted in Sienna Gold, was accepted. P-O happened to get one of the last Rover Minis imported to Sweden.
As a result, he made the decision to keep them in delivery condition. It takes a strong character to resist the temptation of driving their cool new acquisitions, but P-O has shown the strength to do so.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    To meet emission requirements, the old design BMC A engine, received a catalyst and two-point fuel injection from the then MG ZF. With a higher final gear, a longer first gear, and a lower engine speed, the engine's character became more torsionally stronger.

  • Interior condition:

    White dials, walnut dashboard and trims, and a Blaupunkt music system complete the interior. This was an exclusive that was only available as an export model.

  • Exterior condition:

    Beautiful gold metallic and an exterior in pristine new condition. A fun fact is that you can still see manufacturing brackets in the underbody where it was hung on the assembly line; they are not painted or rusted treated. It also comes with a Sports Pack, which includes effective Koni shock absorbers and 13-inch wheels with 175/50/13 Dunlop tires (of course)

  • General condition:

    A brand-new vehicle with all the bells and whistles, or a collector vehicle that is an older vehicle in new-delivery condition. It's identical to the other new Minis up for auction, and it's never been inspected or tested. These vehicles are now time capsules that should be preserved for the sake of history and future investment.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
