Yeah, you would have. It's my favourite Mpi. I purchased the van, hence the sale! >_<

I will be sad if someone does buy it! Mpi Minis are my favourite. The van is different but I do like my supercharged Mpi. ;D  I have always wanted a Tahiti blue Cooper Sport.....it's my favourite model.

A few more pics.....the bunting on the roof rack was for a parade. I don't drive around with this fitted all the time!

Thanks for looking....

Thanks minimissions. I think the van is amazing! :thumbsup:

 

I sold my supercharged Rover Mini Cooper Sport a few weeks ago. Sad to see it go! It went down to Hertfordshire.

 

A few styling changes prior to re-listing it for sale....

Removed the Union Jack door mirror decals, original Cooper grille back on, headlamp peak gone, stupid black tape removed from spot lamps...

 

Looking more original....

Thanks. Yeah, the boot lid is different! When I travelled to see the Mini I was thinking 'that boot lid needs repainting'....but, I ended up liking it! :-)

I can't believe how good your Minis (past and present) look.

Even coming down to suttle touches such as the red towing eyes on the MPi.
