After the 1959 Debut of the Revolutionary, Morris Mini-Minor, it was just a Short 2 Years before John Cooper Introduced to the World, the First Mini “Cooper”, with the “S” following a Further 2 Years Later, in 1963.

A Replacement Engine from a Slightly Later Mk1 Cooper S has been Fitted. Externally the Only Changes are Chrome Bullet Mirrors, Chrome Flip-Top Fuel Filler Caps and the 10” Alloy Wheels with Black Centres and Polished Rims.
The Cooper S Drives Well with Good Power, Good Gear Selection and the Nimble Road Performance that Mini’s are Known For. A True Classic of the 60’s which is Still Able to put a Real Smile on the Face of those who Remember Them Fondly, as well as Those Embarking on a New Classic Experience.
