SUMMARY

A unique opportunity to own a rare and exciting Mini Cooper, with nothing more to do but drive and enjoy.

DESCRIPTION

Background:
The 1992 Mini Cooper is a sought after example of the iconic British small car, combining sharp handling with classic styling. This specific example has been extensively modified to enhance both performance and aesthetics. With a range of carefully selected upgrades, it represents the perfect balance of classic Mini charm and modern-day performance. Featuring a potent engine, sporty suspension and refined interior, this Mini Cooper is a prime example of the breed, offering a truly exciting driving experience.

The Car:

This 1992 Mini Cooper is a thoroughly modified example, packed with upgrades that enhance both its performance and visual appeal. Its exterior features GB 5" wheels fitted with Yokohama semi-slick Advan A048 tires, giving it a distinctive and sporty stance. The Cooper S grille and rear Lucas lights add to the classic look, while chrome trim details, white turn signals, and 4-outlet water sprayers complete the stylish package.

Inside, the car features original Escort Cosworth Recaro seats with modified rails for improved comfort and support. Additional instruments for oil pressure and temperature monitoring have been fitted, ensuring the car runs at optimal performance. The interior also boasts electric windows, a Motolita steering wheel and a wooden dashboard, all combining to create an elegant yet purposeful cockpit. The Rover luggage compartment container adds a practical touch, while the adjustable Koni shock absorbers and cones, drilled brake discs and braided brake lines contribute to an enhanced driving experience.

At the heart of the car, the engine has been modified for maximum performance. A Weber 45 carburettor, Longman cylinder head with large valves, and a steel crankshaft are just a few of the enhancements that give this Mini an unmistakable edge. With the addition of an RC 40 exhaust, Kent 276 camshafts, and a quick-shift transmission, this Mini Cooper offers exhilarating performance. To ensure the engine operates efficiently, a special oil cooler, oversized radiator, and racing fan have been added, along with a racing coil and silicone cables. The car also benefits from a larger radiator with a 22-pulley and a range of high-performance engine components.

Summary:
This 1992 Mini Cooper is a highly modified, performance-focused example of the iconic British hatchback. With its rare combination of high-spec modifications and classic Mini styling, it offers a thrilling driving experience that will appeal to enthusiasts and collectors alike. The car has been carefully upgraded to ensure both performance and reliability, and is ready for its next owner to enjoy.
