Description
For sale is my 2005 MINI Cooper R50, a genuinely well-cared-for example with an extremely comprehensive service history and a full year’s MOT.
This is the classic first-generation modern MINI Cooper — compact, characterful and, most importantly, brilliant fun to drive. It has the tried-and-tested 1.6-litre Chrysler/Tritec engine, rather than the later-generation MINI engines, and it drives exactly as a MINI should.
The car has clearly been well looked after throughout its life, backed up by an extensive history showing the maintenance it has received over the years. Finding an older MINI with this level of documented history is becoming increasingly difficult.
Highlights:
2005 MINI Cooper R50
1.6 petrol Tritec/Chrysler-derived engine
Extremely comprehensive service history
12 months MOT
Well maintained and cared for
Great-looking dark blue exterior with contrasting black roof
Classic MINI styling
Excellent handling and genuinely enjoyable to drive
Ideal inexpensive daily driver, first car or fun weekend runabout
It’s one of those cars that reminds you that driving doesn’t have to be boring. Small, responsive and full of character, with the history and maintenance record you really want when buying a MINI of this age.
A lovely, honest R50 that’s ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
