John Cooper was well known for his involvement. with his father
Charles. in developing the post-war rear engine single seater 500cc
race cars that ran amok and beat the larger front engine cars of
the period. John is also later renowned for his development of the
iconic Mini with the Mini Coopers cleaning up in high profile race
and rally events in the 1960s and beyond.

Offered today is this 1997 Rover Mini Cooper which was owned by
the Duke of Westminster between 2003 and 2008. substantiated by the
service records present in the history file. from the Eaton Estate.
Today. the Mini looks splendid in bright red and has had some
modifications carried out to improve performance and to give her a
look of the earlier Mini Cooper model. An RC40 competition
stainless steel exhaust is mated to a stage II cylinder head and
records show that in 2013. a replacement gearbox with the stronger
four pin differential was fitted along with a new clutch. The
interior presents well and. whilst the original rear seats are in
place. the front seats have been replaced with Cobra bucket seats.
The walnut dashboard is good and is complemented by a Mota-Lita
leather steering wheel. We are informed by the vendor that this
Mini drives well and is very quick. The car comes with its UK
V5 registration document. an MoT test certificate valid until
January 2017. Eaton Estate service records. an owner's manual and a
service book with nine service stamps. The service book also states
that the Cooper was off the road whilst in the ownership of the
Duke of Westminster. A small package with potential for lots of
fun.
