We had the pleasure of selling this car last year already. Once we were presented with the opportunity to buy it back - it goes without saying we did not have to think twice! The previous owner, a noted collector with great taste had a re-shuffle of his collection and we were pleased to be able to buy her back!This Mini 1.3 MPI Sportspack is an original British Open of the second series, originally registered on the 30th of October 1998 to Landau in the South West of Germany. Finished in the striking colour combo of BRG over a full leather Beige interior, sporting 13" wheels with wheel arches, 4 additional lights (2 driving and 2 fog) and the Webasto electronically operated panoramic roof - exactly how it left the factory.Chassis no 4469 is a near mint example throughout. Having covered a mere 54.950 substantiated km's with just 3 private owners in its entire life. The body is, as far as we're aware, totally unwelded and completely rust free throughout. All spotwelds, water apertures and shutlines depict a very original body. The paint finish is very consistent throughout, showing no excessive signs of wear and tear and is correct in all apertures. Technically she is equally sorted, fully functioning and driving as per a Classic Mini should. She fires up at the flick of the key, runs dead-smooth and pulls very nicely - and absolutely no crunchy synchros in the gearbox whatsoever as they have been replaced recently. All electrics work as per they should and the Webasto roof (still the original one!) opens and closes very smoothly and seals nicely all round.The interior is near brand new, festooned in Beige full leather upholstery, Burr Walnut veneer dash, door- and (quite rare) steering wheel inserts to top it all off. Especially with the roof opened the Beige contrast with the Dark BRG just oozes British style and sophistication. The underside and apertures of the car boast residues of Dinitrol rust-proofing - probably one of the reasons it presents in such great shape today.The Mini is freshly serviced by Marque experts Devillers Garage of Flémalle, including new synchromesh rings on the first two gears. Invoices included in the history file. It is completely ready for Sunnier days ahead and needs for nothing!Today this stunning Mini is accompanied by the original booklet pouch with all original manuals, TÜV documentation and two original sets of keys.Bite-size:Sportspack Mini's with low, substantiated mileage are becoming increasingly rare. This limited-run, freshly serviced and wonderfulyl specced example is as fine as they come.
