The Mini Mk1 is considered a milestone in automotive history. It often forms part of collections with the most exotic sports cars. It can be driven in historic rallies, used for classic tours, or simply parked in the showroom as a decorative piece. Those who choose to drive it fast will be the happiest – this small car handles like a small go-kart. It’s an incredibly charming yet serious machine. The factory rally car was powerful enough to win the Monte Carlo Rally three times, in 1964, 1965, and 1967, beating much larger and more powerful Porsches, Lancias, and Saabs. The Morris Mini Cooper S Mk1 is now a collector’s item. This example is distinguished by important details, such as dual fuel tanks – a feature reserved exclusively for the then-most powerful “Cooper S” version.

Everything that could be restored was restored to maximize the car’s originality.
The car was stripped down to the last detail and then meticulously reassembled to be as good as new in every respect.

The power unit was rebuilt to produce approximately 90 HP, which is more than sufficient for a car of this size.
The Mini also features a gearbox with sportier gear ratios and a short shifter.

The suspension features sport shock absorbers and aluminum wheels with semi-slick tires. Thanks to these modifications, the car drives like a go-kart.

The entire interior, from the carpets to the seats to the ceiling, is new.
Due to the engine modifications, an accessory tachometer was installed, matching the style of the MK2 clocks, which were also purchased new.
All chrome elements were replaced with new ones. The Mk1 model is now extremely rare.

Finding a Mini with sliding windows and dual fuel tanks in a rebuildable condition is almost impossible. The car was built with incredible care.
Currently, the car is unused and in like-new condition.
