Produced to celebrate 30 years of Mini production and one of a limited run of only 2000 in metallic Cherry red with only with only 260 remaining. They have always been one of the classiest limited editions that were produced and featured twin coach lines with unique 59-89 badging, colour coded wheel arches and mirrors. Minilite alloy wheels, half leather seats, leather steering wheel and red carpets. This example is a very rare find and one of the best preserved and cherished Mini Thirties that I have prepared. It has only covered a very low 31k in 35 years with just 3 owners. The last lady has loved and cared for this Mini since 2002. It has been meticulously serviced every year and garaged the entire time. It is accompanied with a detailed service history including a large folder of service receipts, MOT certificates and a fully stamped service book along with the original handbooks. Registered new by Clist and Rattle in Bristol and still proudly wearing both its original supplying dealer number plates.On the road this Mini drives very well with that low mileage taught Mini feel. It has a very responsive near silent 998 engine and a precise gearbox. Performance is very brisk and it will surprise its lucky new owner as it easily keeps up with modern traffic and is huge fun on the twisty roads. It does have a straight through exhaust that gives it a subtle burble and this model also benefits from servo assisted disc brakes. What you will be doing lots of is smiling.The interior is in excellent condition and completely original and again thanks to its very low mileage it still feels like new. It has the Mini 30 badged half leather seats, three clock dash with rev counter. Red leather steering wheel with matching carpets, the original Philips cassette player and the correct shelf mounted speakers. This model also has rear seat belts.This Mini has a very solid shell and is one of the few thirties with its completely original gleaming floor pans, original vented sills, untouched boot floor and it still had its original factory waxoil on the rear subframe. The engine bay is again all original and well detailed. The paintwork is gleaming, this Thirty could be proudly displayed at any show and make its new owner very proud. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a beautifully preserved and collectable eighties limited edition Mini with very low mileage.We have fully serviced, checked, driven and tuned this Mini and it has a long no advisory MOT so it is ready to be enjoyed.Viewings are welcome and I am happy to answer questions you may have either through here or on the details below or the details below (Paul)Further images are available and two walk round videos.We also offer a delivery service.We are constantly preparing Classic Minis for sale so please get in touch with your requirements as we always happy to help.Thanks for looking.
