Further info:
This splendid-looking home market Cooper S has apparently been garaged since the late 1990s. It was purchased from a friend by the current keeper in 2015, who treated it to a comprehensive two-year restoration, retaining the original livery of Old English White over Almond Green. A 1965 build, `MPD 193D' was delivered new the following year by Jacksons Garage of Guildford to a Mrs I J Vallance. The Mini has still only completed 62,500 miles and is offered complete with Gold Seal replacement engine overhauled by S&H Engineering; electronic ignition; spare set of Dunlop alloy wheels plus tyres; period radio and twin rear speakers; leather-rimmed steering wheel; bluetooth connectivity; Heritage Certificate; and a large collection of invoices and old MOTs; and photos of the restoration. The vendor has no hesitation in describing the bodywork, paintwork, Porcelain Green/Dove Grey interior trim, A Series engine and four-speed manual transmission as all being in `excellent' order.
