Mini 1300 Knightbridge 2000

Car brand and model history The Mini is undoubtedly one of the most iconic cars in the history of the automotive world. Its story begins in 1959, when Sir Alec Issigonis designed the revolutionary Mini. With its innovative transverse engine and compact design, the Mini quickly became a symbol of the 1960s and the British car world. The Classic Mini was not only loved by the general public, but also became a legend on the racetrack, thanks in part to its agility and low centre of gravity. The Mini Classic 1300, like this version, became famous for its lively performance, charming looks and unparalleled driving pleasure. The model we now offer, cloaked in the timeless British Racing Green colour, is a tribute to that legendary heritage. This particular model is among the last series of this iconic range, known as 'The Final' and the exclusive 'Knightsbridge' edition, which closed Classic Mini production.

Whether you are driving along winding dyke roads or cruising around town, the Mini Classic 1300 offers a playful, responsive driving experience rarely seen in modern cars. Every turn feels like a dance, every acceleration a step back in time, with a modern twist thanks to the recently added DAB+ radio.
