One of the Final 500 Minis

£19,250.00 Make Rover Model Mini Year 2001 Transmission Manual Fuel Petrol Engine Size 1,275 ccm Mileage 41,999 Miles Emission class 164 2001 Rover Mini Cooper Sport 500 – One of the Final 500 Classic MinisA genuinely special piece of British motoring history. This 2001 Rover Mini Cooper Sport 500 is one of just 500 examples produced to commemorate the end of production of the original Classic Mini, making it one of the final and most collectable versions of this iconic British car.First registered on 28th March 2001, this example is recorded on the V5 as a Mini Classic Cooper S500 and is powered by the iconic 1,275cc petrol engine. After more than 41 years of production, the Cooper Sport represented the ultimate evolution of the original Mini, with the Sport 500 forming a special final batch of just 500 cars.The Sport 500 specification included the distinctive Sport Pack bodywork with wider arches, 13-inch alloy wheels, full leather interior, alloy dashboard and contrasting Platinum Silver roof. Genuine Sport 500 models also feature a special plaque within the glovebox identifying them as one of the final 500 Minis built to the original Sir Alec Issigonis design.What really sets this example apart is its remarkable history file. It comes with an extensive collection of invoices, servicing and maintenance records, historic MOT certificates and European technical inspection documentation spanning more than two decades.The paperwork documents a fascinating period of the Mini's life in France before its eventual return to the UK, with maintenance carried out by Mini and Rover specialists along the way. The file includes an MG Rover London invoice from April 2008 at 29,263 miles, earlier Rover documentation, numerous invoices from The London Mini Centre and later specialist maintenance records from its time overseas.Historic MOT and French Contrôle Technique records further support the car's history and mileage progression, providing exactly the type of provenance that becomes increasingly important with a collectable classic.The car is supplied with 2 keys and, in a lovely finishing touch, its documentation is presented with a Mini Cooper Sport 500 shoulder bag – the perfect accompaniment to such a special car and a great way to keep its extensive history together.The Cooper Sport 500 wasn't simply another Mini special edition. It marked the conclusion of one of Britain's most recognisable cars and represents the final factory evolution of the original Mini.With genuine Sport 500 provenance, extensive supporting documentation, 2 keys and its Cooper Sport 500 shoulder bag, this is a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiast or collector to own one of the final 500 original Minis ever produced.
