2000 classic rover mini john cooper le 40

The Mini John Cooper LE 40 was unveiled in 1999, celebrating 40 remarkable years of the Mini and honouring the Cooper’s triumph in the F1 World Championship. With only 300 units produced, this limited edition was exclusively offered in a striking Brooklands Green with a contrasting Old English White roof, and featured a stunning Grenadine Red leather interior. Every car was built to a very high standard, boasting Rallye-style spot lamps, white bonnet stripes and mirrors, and 13" Sportspack alloy wheels and flared wheel arches. The luxurious interior features a leather-bound steering wheel, handbrake lever and gear knob, a radio/CD stereo and an engine-turned effect dash with magnolia-faced dials.

Originally supplied by Skinners Rover on 7th January 2000, this Mini John Cooper LE 40 displays 51,000 warranted miles from new and is a splendid example. According to the accompanying documentation, the car spent its first eight years as a daily driver before retiring to life as a classic toy, with recurring periods spent in storage. She has clocked just 8,000 miles in the past six years and has been maintained regardless of expense, with £5,000 spent in the past eleven months alone to ensure excellent all-round condition.

The Mini is sold newly serviced and MoT’d and benefits from a new cat, CV joint, alternator, rear brake disks, ignition leads, windscreen and refurbished alloy wheels. Supplied with a comprehensive history file enclosing a fully stamped service book, owner’s handbooks, original sales brochure and sundry invoices detailing mileage and works completed.

I was looking for a Mini for over a year and nearly fell in some pit holes along the way, but then I saw a Mini at Phil Mires Classic Cars, and this is when I met Phil. From start to finish he has made the whole experience what it should be when buying a Mini; fun and informative.
