A desirable addition to any collection of special Minis and offered at 'No Reserve'.

One of only 3,000 produced in the UK specifically for the Mini’s 30. th. Anniversary. Complete with a certified John Cooper Conversion – No 019RF100090 offering a power increase from 41bhp to a more healthy 60bhp at 6000 rpm. Recently professionally refreshed after a period of storage. Finished in black, one of only two colours available. Highlighted by subtle anniversary decals and Minilite-style alloy wheels. The spirit of the 60s in a car for the 90s. A desirable addition to any Mini collection and offered without reserve.

At the heart of the conversion offered by John Cooper Garages was a new cylinder head that offered performance straight out of a race engine tuner’s handbook, developed in conjunction with Cooper’s old friend Jan Oder and Janspeed Engineering, boasting larger inlet and exhaust valves for greater fuel flow capability and new aluminium bronze vale seats that offered reliability and durability at a time when greener fuels were emerging. John Cooper Garages claimed, at the time, that torque was increased from 42lb.ft to 64lb.ft and power output up from 41bhp to a healthy 60bhp, decreasing the car's 0-60 time by six seconds to 12.6 secs, not too shabby for a standard Mini over 30 years ago.
