1992 Rover Mini Sprite 13,980 (Not Warranted) £7,250 + buyers premium

Description:

On the Surface: This is a 1992 Rover Mini Sprite set off nicely by what we believe to be a Kingfisher Blue finish. Both the outside and inside are in excellent condition, showing that it’s been taken care of really well. It not only looks good but is also in great shape, making it a great choice for anyone who loves classic Minis or classic cars in general.

Maintenance: The Vendor has owned this Sprite for more than two years and spent a lot of money keeping it in top condition. The receipts show they spent £4039.76 on different things, with two big bills catching the eye. One in October ’23 was for £1,643.58, covering parts, an MOT test, and commission for paintwork. Another one in May ’23 was a whopping £1,886.18 for parts and labour.

History: Looking at the history that comes with the car, it’s clear that it’s been well taken care of even before the current owner got it. There are bills from before, adding up to around £3,500, showing a history of keeping the car in good shape.

The Model: This 1992 Rover Mini Sprite is a special car in the Mini family. Not many are left on the roads, only 618 out of the 3,800 that were originally registered. People love it because of its classic design, small size, and fun driving experience.

Sale Insight: This Mini Sprite not only looks great but also has a solid record of being well-maintained. The dual exit exhaust at the back gives it a sporty touch, and the added reversing light makes it more convenient for the driver. With only a few Mini Sprites left, buying this 1992 model is a chance to own a lesser seen Mini sub model.
