This is a low mileage 1997 Rover Mini Cooper which, from manufacture, benefited from the desirable factory fitted sport pack and upgraded further with the additional Mini Cooper branded leather seats. Finished in Tahiti blue with a white diamond II roof and white stripes on the bonnet (Paint code JDR), which I believe is the very best colour combo for a Rover Mini Cooper Sport. It has been family owned and kept in a garage since 2004 and only occasionally used, hence the low mileage of 40,000+ miles. Since May 2026, it has received a new MOT and new service with only minor advisories of interest, of which the expansion tank was replaced, the old coolant system was flushed out and the system was bled and new coolant put in. The advisory also states that the break pads were low, so we purchased some new Bembo pads to replace them, but on inspection there was a lot of life left on the old ones and didn't need replacing soon, so the new pads will also be provided. The bodywork is in generally good condition, but has rust spots at the lower right corner of the rear window, along the drivers door and on the lower leading edge of the drivers side wing. Also the rear bumper has 2 small dents, but the front bumper is in good condition. Inside there are some marks to the wooden surround of the instrument panel but it still has its original Rover stereo. The car also has its original Rover alarm and immobiliser and two sets of keys are present with the two key fobs still working well. Finally since it has lived on our drive, we have noticed a very minor hydraulic leak, but it is so minor it didn't show up as an MOT advisory, so should be easy to solve and does not effect the drive. The car also comes with some lovely original bills and receipts accumulated over the last 22 years. FYI The number plate (P2 BWG) will be sold with the car and there will be no test drives without full proof of insurance cover. All in all this is a very original 1997 Rover Mini Cooper Sport which has not been messed about with in any way, and now becoming very rare in this original condition.
