HISTORY / OVERVIEW
The Mini Cooper 1.6 is an iconic compact car, born to combine retro design, safety and driving pleasure, while maintaining the brand MINI's distinctive character in its modern reinterpretation. The Cooper version stands out for its lively engine and sporty chassis that ensure a dynamic and engaging drive, typical of the “go-kart feeling” that made the model famous.
Today the Mini Cooper 1.6 is considered a growingly sought-after youngtimer, increasingly appreciated by enthusiasts for its unmistakable style and driving pleasure.
EXTERIOR
In its original two-tone color scheme, red for the body and black for the roof, it still presents in good overall condition with usual localized signs of use and aging. A polishing and detailing treatment has just been completed. The plastics and all typical details are original and well maintained. It has not suffered any accidents as certified by Carfax and the mileage is original.
The underbody is in solid original condition and well usable, well preserved and with a recently new exhaust.
INTERIOR
The interiors are well preserved, complete and original, in nice condition, including the dashboard and the original steering wheel and all details. They show only minimal and normal signs of use and aging, even the headliner is in good condition. A sanitization treatment has just been completed.
MECHANICS
Mechanically the car has the original engine as per the registration certificate, runs well, starts immediately, and is drivable: the clutch and gears also function correctly. The latest technical inspection was just passed in April 2026, valid until April 2028 with no defects found for road use. Additionally, the car has Carfax-guaranteed mileage with no accidents reported.

Vehicle registration
Buyers are responsible for vehicle's registration, not the seller or Catawiki.
Request help with registration from a third-party service provider.Disclaimer
Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
