Description from the seller
OVERVIEW / CONDITIONS
This 1972 Mini Cooper 1300 is not only an icon of British automotive design but a standout specimen meticulously prepared for regularity rallies. The car represents the perfect balance between historic elegance and sporting grit, ideal for those who wish to participate in high-level competitions and events.
Historical value and authenticity of this example are at the highest levels, as testified by the prestigious ASI Gold Plate and the FIVA Certification, documents that guarantee its collectible importance and access to the world's most important international events.
EXTERIOR
The bodywork is in splendid condition. Despite its sporty soul, the car shows no body defects.
The paint is very good, with a deep gloss that enhances the compact and muscular lines of the Mini.
Every external detail, from the chrome trim to the light clusters, has been perfected to offer impeccable presentation both in display and on the starting line.
MECHANICS
The 1300 cc heart has undergone a complete and professional overhaul, aimed at optimizing reliability and the pleasure of racing.
The mechanics have been skillfully revised, bringing power to 71 HP. This increase ensures dynamic acceleration and superior responsiveness, making the car extremely competitive on twisty sections.
Mechanical condition is good and the car is ready to go on the road without immediate intervention.
INTERIORS:
The cabin is a perfect union between originality and sporting safety.
The interiors have been preserved with such care that they are as good as new.
To meet the needs of regularity rallies, high-containment sport seats and a safety roll-bar have been installed, elements that confer a professional racing character without altering the essence of the car.
This Mini Cooper 1300 is a rarity: a car with certified pedigree (ASI Gold/FIVA), enhanced mechanics and impeccable aesthetics.
Car visible in Modena, Italy.

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.
