The condition of this GP1 is genuinely as immaculate as you could ever expect. The bodywork presents in great shape with no nasty dents or scratches, and just a handful of neatly touched up stone chips to the front end. All four wheels have just been fully (& properly) refurbished and re diamond cut and are wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza tyres with ample tread all round having covered only about 2,000 miles. The underside also presents fantastically and it's a testament to the previous owners preventative measures to ensure it stays looking as good as possible. The interior is in equally fine form with no significant wear to any areas, the seats especially are very fresh and retain a lovely matte finish. The car remains almost entirely standard but does benefit from the addition of a more sturdy strut brace (original item suffers from oxidisation), some powerflex bushes as well as an upgraded alloy header tank making the cooling system more reliable. There is also a genuine (& very outdated) MINI branded Garmin satnav system. The car comes with handbooks, both keys, 4 original GP jacking blocks and side skirt caps, GP authenticity and a huge history file covering its whole life. Nationwide delivery is available and the car is of course HPI clear
