The car offered here is a genuine Austin Mini Cooper Mark I built in 1967 and sold new to the Danish importer, DFA Denmark. In the 1990s a former owner transformed the car into a racer and it has been developed over more than 20 years. Motor Racing Legends, the organisers of the increasingly popular Historic Touring Car Challenge for Group 5 cars up to 1969, Group 2 cars up to 1981 and Group A cars post '81, have confirmed its eligibility.

This Austin Mini Cooper has been built to the ultimate Special Tuning Group 2 'Cooper S' works specification and is race ready. The engine and gearbox was completely rebuilt after its 1st place finish in the 2015 Copenhagen Grand Prix pre-1971 under 1300cc race. The new engine incorporates a new forged competition crankshaft; Swiftune flywheel; reworked Arden eight-port cylinder head; and Lucas fuel injection with bespoke slide-type throttle. The transmission consists of a brand new 'dog box' with Swiftune drop gears, while other noteworthy features include aluminium doors, bonnet and boot lid, and aluminium rear brake drums. We are advised that the drive train alone is worth £20,000.

The accompanying spares package includes the following: new brake parts, etc; bespoke chassis stands; bespoke set up stands; bonnet/hood stands; set up tools, etc, all boxed in alloy transport cases. The car also comes with six very rare 12"x7" magnesium Minilite wheels and 3 sets of new tires! Accompanying documentation consists of a Heritage Certificate, Danish registration papers, dynamometer printout (145bhp), and a full FIA HTP with all parts documented.
