Description
Who isn’t familiar with the Mini? Named by many automotive journalists as one of the most iconic cars ever made—and rightly so, in our opinion. When you sit inside this Mini with its very modest dimensions, you’ll immediately notice how spacious it feels.
Don’t get us wrong: we think modern Minis are fantastic cars with delightful handling. If we’re renting a car on vacation, chances are high we’ll choose a modern Mini convertible. But when you take a close look at the classic Mini, you notice how intelligently this car was made. The engine is mounted transversely—a rarity for its time—which allowed the design to maximize interior space. Sir Alec Issigonis, the man behind the design, placed the wheels as far apart as possible. The result? Better stability and even more room inside! So, the next time you hear stories of people piling four friends into a Mini to head to the pub, it might just be true!
Restored to Factory Specifications
This Mini Cooper S is a stunning 1970 Cooper, fully restored to factory specifications. That means the restoration was carried out with meticulous attention to detail—and it shows! On our website, you can find several photos of the restoration that give a good impression of the work done. This also reveals that we provide this Mini with extensive documentation, including photos of the restoration and overhaul, as well as the British Heritage Certificate. The certificate makes it crystal clear that this Mini has matching numbers and features the correct color scheme as it left the factory.
Gorgeous Upholstery in Autumn Leaf
The entire car is immaculate. The exterior has been resprayed in the original color with which this Mini was delivered in 1970: Bedouin. With sleek sheet metal and beautiful chrome parts, the exterior is a beauty! The same goes for the interior. The original upholstery color, Autumn Leaf (what a beautiful name), is stunning, and everything has been completely renewed. As a result, the interior also looks magnificent.
Mechanically Overhauled
Just as much attention has been paid to the mechanical aspects. The photos probably already suggest this. We’re dealing with overhauled mechanics that have been completely and carefully rebuilt. Driving this Mini is therefore fantastic—pure driving pleasure from an era when you could find a Mini on practically every street corner.
