Description
**2000 ROVER MINI CLASSIC COOPER SPORT - 8,500 MILES - 2 OWNERS - COLLECTOR QUALITY**
A very special opportunity to acquire an exceptional, remarkably original example of one of the most desirable final-production classic Minis.
This **2000 Rover Mini Classic Cooper Sport** is finished in iconic **Solar Red with Platinum Silver contrasting roof and bonnet stripes** and has covered just **8,500 miles from new**, with only **2 owners**.
The Classic Cooper Sport represented the flagship of the final generation of the original Mini and was produced during the very last months of production at Longbridge. Only **2,091 right-hand-drive Classic Cooper Sports** were produced from the final batch, making good, original examples increasingly sought after by collectors.

Platinum Silver roof and bonnet stripes

Alloy window winders, door pulls and handles
Leather-trimmed interior

**EXCEPTIONALLY LOW MILEAGE**
What makes this example particularly special is its combination of **extremely low mileage, limited ownership, originality and exceptional preservation**.
With just 8,500 miles from new, it presents as a genuine collector-quality car rather than a restored high-mileage example.
The Solar Red and Platinum Silver colour combination is particularly striking and perfectly suits the wider stance of the Cooper Sport. The interior is equally impressive, retaining its distinctive leather upholstery, alloy dashboard and matching alloy detailing.
Production of the original Mini ended at Longbridge on **4 October 2000**, bringing its extraordinary 41-year production run to a close. The Classic Cooper Sport therefore represents one of the very last and most developed versions of this iconic British motor car.
