The Property of a Gentleman and Racing Enthusiast
2008 Mini Cooper S Rally Project Coupé
Registration no. WJ58 CNU
Chassis no. WMWMF72030TT42513
Engine no. MCGV100344572

Rebuilt using a Category D loss vehicle as a base, this MINI Cooper S has been completely restored bodily and mechanically. With a full roll cage and new suspension, the MINI is fitted with AP Racing brakes and a new custom wiring loom. A high performance engine has been built and is complete but not fitted, and a gearbox is still required. The project was started by renowned preparation experts Rally World of Essex and Tommy Field Motorsport. A great opportunity to acquire and build a very competitive car with much of the hard work already done - a sure-fire winner in the right hands - at far less than what has been invested already.
