"It's a lot of fun to drive and always makes you smile. It has been well cared for and recently underwent a major overhaul that cost a lot of money. A great example of the traditional mini design at a reasonable price."

Description

It was newly registered in Sweden in the late summer of 1997. One of the final year models of the "classic Mini." The car has modern features such as airbags and injection, which are unusual for a classic Mini. This model is from the final series and has a 1.3L engine with a 63 horsepower injection. As much as the original Cooper S. Disc brakes are also standard, as is a two-color paint scheme. As needed, the engine and transmission have been repaired and refurbished. Great car with a recently updated ecu and new tyres. Good documentation and receipts.

Facts about the model

De tillverkades under BMC:s paraply med namnen Austin och Morris samt lyxversionerna Wolseley och Riley. Det kallades för "badge engineering” eftersom man i stort bara bytte lite namnskyltar och grillar. Den första hundkojan eller Mini som de kallades för i övriga världen presenterades 1959. Den var revolutionerande tackvare sin smarta och platsbesparande konstruktion som Alec Issigonis var ansvarig för. Issigonis tanke var att det skulle vara en enkel och billig bil med bra vägegenskaper. Det blev det också. En som verkligen uppskattade bilen var John Cooper som på den tiden drev ett racingstall med formelbilar i högsta ligan. Han använde själv BMC-motorer i dessa och visste dess potential. En tanke var född. John Cooper kontaktade Alec Issigonis som inte alls var intresserad av att ha en vassare motor i sin kära mini. Han ansåg att den var en bil för folket och inte ett tävlingsredskap som John Cooper ville ha den till.



1961 fick John Cooper ändå som han ville och en uppförstorad, 997cc (57 hk) variant av den ursprungliga 850 (37 hk) motorn togs fram. Nya Mini Cooper var därmed född. Cooper fick en annorlunda klädsel samt skivbromsar. De hade också en avvikande färg på taket. En vassare variant presenterades 1963 och kom att byggas i en kortare serie. Det var Cooper S 1071cc som även fick större och kraftigare skivbromsar. 1964 hände det mycket. Tre nya motorvarianter togs fram. Cooper S 1275cc och 970cc samt en mer civiliserad motor för gatan för 998cc för den vanliga Coopern. Skälet till att man tog fram så många varianter av motorer var de olika klassindelningarna baserade på motorvolym som användes vid biltävlingar. Det fanns klasser för bilar upp till 850 cc, 1000 cc, 1150 cc och 1300 cc. En Mini för varje klass, alltså.
