On the Surface:

Presented in the rare and striking Moreno Cherry, this genuine 1999 Mini Cooper Sportspack stands out with its iconic wide arches and purposeful stance. A true head-turner, it remains in solid presentable condition, retaining a charming patina reflective of regular use rather than full restoration. Completing the exterior is the factory-fitted, unused original spare wheel.

Maintenance:

The car retains its original service book, with four service stamps recorded, and some accompanying service history. In 2022, it benefited from £1,400 of work, predominantly welding, ensuring the structural integrity is up to par. The vehicle holds a current MOT, suggesting it’s road-ready, though it’s not seen much use of late.

History:

Owned by one lady from new until 2022, this Mini has had a remarkably consistent ownership history. Unlike many examples that were stored or sporadically used, this car was regularly driven, adding to its authenticity as a well-loved and functional classic.

The Model:

The Cooper Sportspack represents the ultimate factory expression of the classic Mini before production ended in 2000. With its factory wide arches, 13” wheels, and sportier looks, the Sportspack is highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts alike—especially in rarer colours like Moreno Cherry.

Sale Insight:

This is an ideal car for someone seeking an authentic, usable Sportspack with excellent provenance and scope for further cosmetic or mechanical detailing. With its rare colour, single long-term ownership, and structural investment already made, it’s a solid and increasingly scarce opportunity in today’s Mini market.

Estimate:
£4,500 - £5,500
