1991 Classic MINI COOPER 1293cc Works SPI Fully refurbished Leather Interior

1991 classic Mini ‘John Cooper' Works Spi 1293cc – Custom built 

This is a fully restored mini.   The build was completed in April 2012 at a cost of £8. 00 and the Mini is stored undercover. As you will see from the MOT is has only covered 500 miles since it was rebuilt. We have two other projects for sale also – a 1340cc Ice Blue Turbo Estate 1981 & a debumpered Mini City 995cc in Grey & Black  see my other listings 

It has a full years MOT and TAX and there is an absolute stack of paperwork documenting everything that has been done and we also have a full ledger listing every part and how much it cost.

This mini gets so much attention and I can guarantee that you won't find a mini that's cleaner. smarter and more sorted than this one externally and interior wise.   The Flame red in this car truly sparkles in the sunshine and has absolutely no orange peel –  it was used by Ashley James Autotrim at Mini in the Park. Santa Pod in 2012.

We welcome serious enquiry's and will not accept any offers without coming to view. I can send further information and more detailed pictures on request.  The engine is an excellent daily runner and starts first time every time with no oil leaks.
