If you're looking for a genuinely well-cared-for, largely original R53 MINI Cooper S, this is a superb example. Finished in stunning Electric Blue Metallic with contrasting white bonnet stripes, white 17-inch alloy wheels, spot lamps and a panoramic glass roof, it combines the iconic looks of the supercharged Cooper S with an excellent specification and an extensive maintenance history. I've owned the car for the past two years, having purchased it from MINI specialist , and it has continued to be maintained regardless of cost. It has covered just 72,000 miles and remains a pleasure to drive, with the distinctive performance and character that made the R53 such a modern classic. The car is HPI Clear, comes with Full Service History, and will be supplied with 12 months MOT for complete peace of mind.

Condition The bodywork presents extremely well for a 20-year-old MINI, with a deep shine to the paintwork and a very smart interior. The leather seats remain in excellent condition with very minor, age-related creasing you'd expect. The panoramic roof operates perfectly, the cabin is clean and well cared for, and everything works as it should. 4 previous owners, HPI clear, ready to drive away (zero faults). Reluctant sale.
