Summary
Supplied new by John Cooper Garages, East Preston, West Sussex on 23rd December 1999 and sold to Summerfield Garage, Worcester Road, Kidderminster.
The Mini was kept unregistered and on display in a motor museum until sold to its first private keeper, Mr Elnor of Checkley, Nantwich, on 12th February 2011. With just two former keepers, whom we have met with both of them, they simply cherished this gorgeous rare example.
The comprehensive history file contains its original bill of sale, Service Portfolio with 15 service stamps documenting its extremely low mileage, past owner information, past MOT certificates, original green suede wallet with owners handbook, In-Car Entertainment booklet, Service Portfolio, key and radio code cards and original John Cooper LE sales brochure.
A fresh 12-month MOT will be completed upon sale, and of course, this Mini is HPI clear with a certificate included.
Without a doubt, this must be the most original, low-mileage Mini John Cooper LE S Works in existence. With values increasing strongly year on year for rare low mileage/ owner Mini's such as this. Supported by documented history back to new, it's one not to be missed. A collector or enthusiast's dream, available now and ready to be delivered in our enclosed trailer.
