A rare opportunity to own an exceptional (R52) super-charged Mini Convertible Cooper S 1.6 with the Chili pack and further desirable factory fitted options. This example has two former keepers recorded on the V5C and has been in the proud possession of its last retired owner since 2014, they enthusiastically cherished the car. There are four entries in the service booklet as well as further documented history including a replacement soft top hood in 2015 at a Mini main dealer. Our mechanical and cosmetic preparation partners have sympathetically recommissioned this example to our exacting standards. Those familiar with the R53 models will know a supercharger oil change is recommended at one hundred thousand miles - we have just performed this along with replacing the water pump (also recommended in conjuction), we have also replaced the standard exhaust system (known to be proned to corrosion) with a superior stainless steel system from the catalyst back, along with an inspectionI service, air conditioning refurbishment and four new tyres. This example is finished in traditional British Racing Green Metallic with black hood and paired with Panther Octagon half leather upholstery. These original super-charged Cooper S versions are hotly tipped to become classics of the future and notably have already shown an increase in values over the past few years, this example is one from the final months of production. We would suggest that this example is a perfect candidate to cherish and potentially see its desirability and value rise in years to come. Equipment specified new includes: Chili pack, Panther Octagon Half Leather, Limited slip differential 25%, ASC+T auto stability control and traction control, 17" Crown design alloy wheels, Air conditioning, Alloy Patina interior surfaces (optional upgrade), Indicators in white, Sports suspension settings, Three spoke sports leather steering wheel, Alarm, Immobiliser, Front seat height and lumbar adjustment, Rear isofix, Sports seats, Front fog lights, Xenon headlights with power wash, Multi-function trip computer, Interior light pack, Mini Professinal Satellite Navigation (optional upgrade), Boost CD tuner, Aux connectivity, Acoustic rear parking sensors, Power hood with partial open (sunroof) facility. Remote central locking, Electric windows, Electric mirrors, Multiple airbags, Front seat passenger airbag de-activation facility, Split folding rear seat. With its punchy supercharged performance this original R52 Cooper S is worth investing in!

Directions



Cars need to meet minimum emission standards when travelling in the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) or the daily charge must be paid.
Minimum emission standards
Petrol: Euro 4
Diesel: Euro 6
The ULEZ will be enforced based on the declared emissions of the vehicle rather than the age. However:
- Petrol cars that meet the ULEZ standards are generally those registered with the DVLA after 2005, although cars that meet the standards have been available since 2001
- Diesel cars that meet the standards are generally those registered with the DVLA after September 2015
