1998 Rover Mini in Hawaiian Blue x Balmoral - Hens Teeth Find
One of those extraordinary hens teeth finds, almost completely factory-original yet in almost as new showroom-condition, super-low genuine mileage owing to long-term elderly lady ownership, this is an example of the ultimate factory specification with the most powerful factory engine and all the modern safety features, combining the super rare Hawaiian Blue with as new Balmoral Trim. You have to see the photographs to appreciate her condition.
She is supplied with 12 months MOT and no advisories, comprehensively serviced (engine, gearbox and coolant), with a HPI clear certificate and a large leather-bound history folder.
(a) Factory Originality
Like hens teeth, she retains her original factory paint-work and panel-work, all of her original features.
(b) Super Low-mileage
Completing just 37,000 miles, her engine, gear-box and interior feel like new.
(c) Long-term Elderly Ownership
Her current long-term keeper purchased her from the renowned Cambridge Mini Works in 2019 for £11,000. Cambridge Mini Works were handling an estate sale after her nineteen year long-term elderly lady keeper had passed away. Ever since she has been polished and metaphorically wrapped in bubble wrap. This Mini is in exceptional condition.
(d) Behind the Wheel
Combining 63bhp with just 600kg of weight and that iconic, rally winning, classic Mini handling, she is tremendous and/or terrifying to drive. Her engine is sweet, her gearbox smooth and precise, everything is exactly as it should be.
(e) The Ultimate Specification
She is the most powerful factory production model, the safest and the most reliable, designed for modern motorways and cities, combining luxury materials with high quality features. These Mini’s cost 63% more than the year previous for a reason, your family could feel safe owing to air bags and crash beams, you could drive them every day due to their increased reliability, you could be proud to own them.

(f) Condition
Inside is a time-warp, the sought after Balmoral trim and blue carpets, her original factory burr-wood dash surrounding the now ever-so vintage factory cassette player. Her dash has one small chip.
Outside is again, a time warp, what we believe to be her original panel-work and paintwork is straight and exact, without filler, with gleaming original paint-work, burnished with lovely chrome-work and finished with Rover branded number plates. There's a few small bubbles hidden at the bottom of her passenger-door, incredible after 27 years, a testament to her quality and steadfastness.
Underneath she is again straight and original, you might choose a new level of under-seal, but otherwise you can see her solidarity.
Accordingly, this is your opportunity to own an ultimate specification Mini in almost as new condition, super low genuine mileage, almost completely factory original, just a lovely hens teeth find. One of the rarest and sought after colours. The photographs speak for themselves.
