Today we bring you something that certainly isn’t your average classic Mini…
Available now at RFH Classics we have this beautifully presented and very special 1991 Mini 1380 Cooper S Replica finished in stunning Tartan Red with a contrasting Black roof. This is a car that has been extensively restored and developed into a seriously impressive fast-road Mini, and there’s rather more to this one than meets the eye.
Mechanically is where this Mini becomes particularly interesting. The car features an A-Series engine with twin SU carburettors, modified 12G940 cylinder head, fast-road camshaft, performance exhaust and upgraded ignition and cooling, together with a rebuilt gearbox and uprated braking and suspension making this a Mini that has clearly been built to offer considerably more than just the looks.
The restoration and development were the subject of a substantial feature in the February 2019 edition of MiniWorld magazine, documenting the build, specification and specialists involved in creating the car you see today.
Sitting perfectly on 10-inch JBW Dunlop D1-style alloys with Yokohama tyres, its Mk1-style grille, auxiliary driving lamps, stainless brightwork and leather bonnet straps give it exactly the purposeful sporting appearance a classic Mini deserves.
The interior wasn’t forgotten with re-trimmed sports seats, Mountney steering wheel and the fabulous early style central three clock instrument conversion.
Beautifully presented, hugely individual and with genuine magazine feature provenance. Offered at £18,995, this is one Mini that really does stand apart from the crowd. Full details available on our website.
