Registration - XPL 502GChassis No. - CA2SB/1296970AM.O.T. - ExemptOdometer - 45,255Immaculate in Island Blue, this example of Austin’s Mini Cooper MkII has undergone a complete restoration and, as such, is a highly-desirable way to get into classic Mini ownership. Powered by the 1.0-litre four-cylinder engine from the period, matched to a four-speed manual gearbox, ‘XPL 502G’ is described as in ‘better than factory’ condition by the vendor, who has had the Mini restored by renowned firm Retro Refinishers of Cannock. After a full body rebuild, with new heritage panels where required, undersealing and Waxoyl, ‘XPL 502G’ is finished in its original colour of Island Blue bodywork with Snowberry White roof. The interior is trimmed in black, and has also been subject to restoration, with seats and door cards in excellent condition, while upgrades include a conversion to dry suspension, 7.5-inch Cooper S brake discs, electronic ignition, phosphor bronze brake lines, stainless steel exhaust, and adapted engine for unleaded petrol. Other than that, the engine, carburettors, and transmission have not been upgraded or tuned. All work has been sympathetically completed, retaining the charm of the classic Mini. The speedometer has period Cooper yellow gear change markings, and upholstery, carpets, and metal-work have been worked on, with everything kept as original or in-period as possible. More than £25,000 has been spent on reconditioning ‘XPL 502G’ with a folder full of paperwork covering work completed, as well as a full history of the Mini including heritage certificate and previous owner log books. The present owner is just the sixth in more than 55 years of ‘XPL 502G’ being on the road, having owned it for over nine years, with the restoration coming in 2016. Since then, it has been dry-stored and driven infrequently, having covered only 400 miles since, according to the vendor. Unsurprisingly, they describe all areas of the Mini as in ‘excellent’ condition, from engine and transmission, through to electrics, interior, paint, and bodywork. The odometer shows just 45,255 miles, which are unwarranted, but should that be correct, would represent a very low mileage example for its age. This beautiful car is a brilliant buy for anyone looking at classic Minis. With the reverberations of the 1956-1957 Suez Crisis being felt worldwide, Leonard Lord lost little time in commissioning Alec Issigonis to begin work on a radical small car project. Apart from the constraint of using existing BMC mechanical assemblies, and a brief to house four adults plus their luggage within as small a space as possible, the brilliant Issigonis was given carte blanche. His response was the now legendary Mini. Featuring an ingenious transverse-mounted powertrain (with engine sat atop the gearbox), all-round independent 'rubber cone' suspension, front-wheel drive and compact rack and pinion steering, the newcomer was a packaging masterpiece; not to mention one of the most influential automotive designs ever conceived. The MkII version (1967-1970) brought a redesigned grille and larger rear window, with around 429,000 units produced during the MkII run. In summary:Wonderfully presented example of the Mk II Austin Mini CooperFully and sympathetically restoredOnly a handful of miles covered since restoration
