About this Rover Mini

SOLD & DEPOSIT TAKEN

This unique Rover Mini Sprite 1275 was first registered in Worcester on 25th January 1993.

In late 2022, the car was acquired by specialist restorer GP Auto Design of Park Royal, London and they completed a comprehensive body restoration and full repaint to a very high standard.

Restoration Details

The works included:

Replacement of both front wings, front and rear valance panels, and door skins
Floor panel repairs and new wheel arch spats
A complete repaint in BMW Marina Bay Blue Metallic with a Black roof, Black bumpers, headlight rims, and racing-style door mirrors (original colour when built was White)
Interior refreshed with new black carpets, LED headlights, new badges, and a set of 12" Mamba alloy wheels

Mechanical and Interior

The car retains its original 1275cc Mini Sprite engine and gearbox, both in excellent condition. The original Grey velour seats and trim remain in place, complemented by a leather steering wheel.

Ownership and Documentation

This Mini has had five former keepers from new – the first three being lady owners, with the most recent owner taking possession in February 2024 when we sold it to him on behalf of GP Auto Design. It is only being sold by him now due to his impending move to the USA.

The car has covered a genuine 59,041 miles and is supported by:

Full MOT history and certificates from 2001 to the present - current MOT until May 2026
Previous maintenance invoices
Clear HPI and National Mileage Register checks
Historic V5 documents confirming ownership history

Condition and Warranty

The vehicle is presented in lovely condition throughout and drives beautifully. 

On sale, it will receive a pre-sales service and check-over and come with a 3-month mechanical warranty, which can be extended or upgraded at additional cost if required.

Summary

A highly attractive Mini Sprite 1275, finished in a distinctive and contemporary colour scheme. An excellent example of this increasingly desirable model, and one which is very nice to drive.
