1995 Rover Mini Cooper SPI - - Japanese Import - OFFERS INVITED This has to be the rarest mini Ive ever owned.. everything works Even the seat belt warning light ! OFFERS AROUND, 17750 This is an exceptionally complete 1995 Rover Mini Cooper SPI, Japanese import, with less than,10,000 miles. A genuinely rare example that has never been exposed to UK road salt and is rust-free throughout. The car has been fully undersealed and dry stored. Mechanically sorted, Key Points: 1600miles since import in 2024, it has only done 2.1 miles this year. Japanese import - rust-free shell Fully undersealed 1300 SPI engine, Zero tolerance mini turbo oil pump. Clubman GT lowered-ratio gearbox Cross-pin differential Evolution 001 camshaft with competition followers Duplex timing chain & ported cooper head (believed Japan-fitted) Adjustable Hi-Lo suspension Rear sprung coil-over dampers JBW 612 "Rallye Special" alloys Yokohama A539 tyres Big-bore stainless exhaust (likely period Japanese custom system) Full leather interior MiniSport Ultimate engine steady bars (top & bottom) Goodridge braided brake HEL braided clutch lines Fletcher silicone hhoses Adjustable oil pressure control Two sets of keys (yes unheard of, and all the locks match) 12 months MOT London based (Hackney Wick) This is not a restored car, but a genuinely preserved, low-mileage Mini with sensible, period-correct upgrades. Optional extra (by separate negotiation): Extremely rare Moto-Lita Racing "Team Mini" Monte Carlo commemorative steering wheel, I am not including this on the sale without a haggle ! engraved and signed by Tom Walkinshaw (four-figure collector value). Also, the fitted leather boot panniers, which were an early JDM specific aftermarket option are absolutely unobtainable (made from genuine unicorn hide)! So the full plan was to ditch the Rover ECU and install the plug and play programmable throttle body from specialist components. Then tune it on a rolling road and squeeze out every last BHP out of her as nature intended ! Unfortunately we have far to many other technically demanding projects on the go to attend to at the moment. Its a classic Mini !!! , life is too short for boring cars !
