- Very rare MKI 1275
The designer of the Mini, sir Alec Issigonis should have never realised what impact his little car would have on the world when the car was introduced in 1959.
The design requests for mister Issigonis were simple. The car had to be affordable, needed four seats for adults and had to be small enough to travel relatively comfortable.
Nobody ever thought that the Mini should become an icon which everybody in the world recognizes.
In the 1960’s the Mini get from a housewives shopping car to the must have fashion accessory, via international stardom onto the rally scene.
Mister John Cooper was able to make the Mini an absolute dream to drive and this was confirmed by the Works spec cars which won the Monte Carlo rally in 1964, 65, 66 en 67.
Everybody wanted a Cooper, and indeed everybody who was anybody in the 60s had a cooper, from The Beatles and Peter Sellers to Graham Hill and even Enzo Ferrari!
But as I learned at my first economy courses. The price of a product is determined by the demand and the availability of a product. So the success of the Mini became also a weakness in the second hand market.
Mini’s have became worthless and were used for all sorts of auto sport. Big trucks drove over the roofs, rally races were done on big fields of farmers and lots and lots of Mini’s have been destroyed.
Nowadays the amount of Mini’s available have been completely changed. It is almost impossible to find a Mini in a nice condition and it is even more difficult to find an example in a nice condition and in the correct specification.
The costs of the restoration are overruling the value of the car, although the prices are currently rising very quickly.
ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC EXAMPLE
This specific Mini is the most desirable version of the Cooper being an MKI Cooper S 1275.
The car has been newly delivered in the United States and is therefore ORIGINAL Left Hand Drive.
The color of the Mini was the same as the car has nowadays. It was newly ordered in Almond Green with an Old English White Roof. The interior was Porcelain Green and Dove Grey.
The Mini comes from the United States and was owned by a large BMW collector. Due to the current connection of BMW with Mini, the former owner had the car in his collection.
CONDITION EXTERIOR
The Mini has been restored during it’s life.
The car looks great, although the paint is not in pristine condition.
The bumpers show some minor flaws but nothing serious.
The wheels are in a very nice order even as the windows and glasses.
All together a nice appearance is very nice for a Mini from this age.
The doorgaps of the Mini are nice and the car is certainly a head turner.
CONDITION INTERIOR
The interior of the Mini is very nice. The entire interior has been restored with period correct materials.
Specific Cooper S details are still on the car such as the chrome part under the steering wheel and the optional rev counter.
Even the original speed indicator which shows a higher topspeed for the Cooper S is still in the car and this is extremely unique!
DRIVING EXPERIENCE
The engine of the Mini has been recently serviced. The result is a very fast Cooper S which is running beautifully.
The handling, the power and the brakes are typical Mini. Very direct and a guarantee for a huge smile on the face.
Due to these services, the Mini is driving fabulous. We have a Morris Cooper S in our own private collection and to be completely honest, this Mini is driving better then our car.
