Being a 1998 Rover Mini 1.3 MPI (63bhp), she is one of the most sought after models of classic Mini. This is because she has of one of the highest specifications (1996-2000), one of the highest quality interiors and one of the most powerful factory engines.
By high specification, we are referring to her being the safest model (door safety beams, driver airbag, SRS AND immobiliser), one of the most reliable models (problematic carburettor, distributor and manual choke replaced with semi-modern injection, dual-spark and auto-choke technology, ECU and more sensors introduced) and the model most capable of motorway driving (different ratio gearbox, revised mechanical locations and sound deadening to reduce cockpit noise) as well as the greenest model (catalytic converter, different ratio gearbox). By high quality interiors, were referring to the Balmoral Interior (one of the most sought after styles and one of the comfiest being half leather and bolstered), wooden dash and multiple gauges. By one of the most powerful models, we’re referring to her having 63bhp which is around 20% more powerful than the earlier 1.3’s. For all the above you do admittedly pay a little more with good examples of the model generally ranging from £11-15k on the private market.
This example was supplied by Lookers Southend to a Miss Brenda Haydon of Essex on the 10th of February 1998 and has since covered just 42,000 miles (mileage records below). She drives perfectly, needs for nothing. Being supplied with 12 months MOT with no advisories, she is ready to drive away and enjoy. She is also HPI clear with no records of accidents. Her bodywork is generally excellent with few blemishes or marks and she is solid underneath. We have a photo and video folder below showing all areas of her.

We guarantee that your Mini will be mechanically perfect at the time of the sale. Mechanically perfect means that your Mini will be roadworthy with a recent MOT, that everything on your Mini will work correctly and that your Mini will be ready to enjoy.
However, it is important to note that Mini's are classic cars opposed to brand new cars, classic cars will have wear and tear on all parts opposed to being built to a new standard and accordingly they will require ongoing maintenance and we cannot be held liable for any ongoing maintenance after the time of the sale. That being said, we have a dedicated phone line to assist you in maintaining your Mini and sourcing replacement parts.
