These later models saw a number of improvements, with a driver’s side airbag, seatbelt pre-tensioners, side door anti-intrusion beams, an immobiliser as well as a distributor-less electronic ignition system. Sourced from John Cooper Garages of East Preston and supplied new by Whichford Rover of Basingstoke to its one and only keeper on the 26th of April 1999, T699 NCF was a standard Mini Cooper 1,275cc ordered from new with the 90bhp John Cooper ‘S works’ Conversion (MCC1275 SW) available on all twin-point Mini Coopers from 1997 onwards. Power output was up by 40% on a standard car with a significant increase in torque without hurting fuel economy or drivability. Finished in Almond Green, it was optioned from new with a Classic Paint Finish, Electric Webasto-style full sunroof, Classic leather trim in Porcelain Green, the Sports Pack, and wood door and rear-quarter cappings costing an additional £1,595. Accessories ordered at the time are listed as a fabric mat set, driving lamp covers, high-mounted rear stop lamp, rear fog warning lamp, a polished rocker cover, and door sill treads topping up the bill by £270.25 and bring the total purchase price, with 12 months Road Tax and First Registration, up to £12,697.55. The Mini has covered a mere 6,350-odd miles in 24 years and presents like a shiny pin. It still displays its John Cooper Conversions plaque confirming that its No.0448- Si and it’s supplied with the original Book Pack with handbooks, and the service book which is stamped up until 2006, when our knowledgeable vendor took over the car’s servicing with further maintenance, MOTs and repairs carried out by a local specialist. The history file contains receipts and invoices for all this work, details of the John Cooper Works conversion, the original Bill of Sale, old MOTs and an A4 ring binder full of documents relating to the care and attention lavished on this one- owner car since 1999. A very quick little Cooper, superbly presented and probably unrepeatable with just 6,350 miles. Fabulous Almond Green one-owner Cooper fitted with the ‘S Works’ conversion and just 6,350 miles from new. More Details Lot 107 Bid On Lot 107
