Description Having devised the iconic original back in the early 1960s, John Cooper sold his own modified Minis under the Mini Cooper name from the mid-1980s, before Rover’s acquisition of the rights to the name made it possible to officially re-launch the model in September 1990. The new Mini Cooper was based on the Mini 30, the most luxuriously equipped Limited Edition Mini to date, but fitted with the 1,275cc engine rather than the 30s 998cc unit. What would turn out to be the final Mini version – the Mark 7 – arrived in 1996. Changes included twin-point fuel injection, higher final drive gearing, driver’s airbag, side impact beams, additional sound insulation, improved front seats, front-mounted radiator and a Sportpack option. By the time production ceased in 2000, a total of well over 5 million Minis of all types had been produced, making it the best selling British car of all time. From 2003 until 2009 this particular mini was the property of The Duke of Westminster.
