The seller offers for sale a 1995 Mini Rover 35th Anniversary Edition, a special limited-edition model celebrating 35 years of the original Mini. Finished in the classic British Racing Green with black leather interior and green piping, this car features a distinctive combination that enhances its collectible appeal. The 1275 cc 4-cylinder SPI (Single Point Injection) engine delivers 63 hp and is mated to a manual gearbox.
This Mini is presented in very good condition throughout. The car was repainted six years ago, and the paint remains in solid shape with only minor imperfections. The body shows no signs of rust or accident damage, and the car holds a valid German inspection (TÜV). According to the seller, it has been well stored and preserved, never requiring structural repair.
The interior is equally well-kept, with original black leather seats showing only light wear. The dashboard features burl walnut wood finish with classic Smiths instrumentation and a matching wood-rimmed sport steering wheel. Sporty door handles and other period-specific trim remain intact. The cabin is clean, functional, and shows minimal wear, consistent with careful use.
Mechanically, the Mini is reported to be in good condition. The engine starts promptly and runs. The gearbox shifts smoothly, with no issues noted. The suspension has been upgraded with GAZ adjustable dampers and a height-adjustable HILO kit at both front and rear, improving the Mini’s stance and handling. A sport exhaust system has also been fitted, providing a more dynamic driving experience and sound.
The Mini 35th Anniversary Edition was produced in limited numbers in 1994 and 1995, featuring several enhancements over the standard model, including upgraded interiors, special badging, unique color schemes, and fuel injection. This generation marked the final years of the classic Mini before the model was reimagined under BMW ownership in the early 2000s. As such, anniversary models have grown increasingly desirable among Mini collectors due to their historical significance and distinctive styling.
Unlike many modified Minis, this car retains its classic form while integrating tasteful performance upgrades such as suspension tuning and sport wheels. It rides on 13-inch Revolution alloy wheels and remains free from rust and damage. The overall driving character is said to be solid, with only light maintenance potentially required in the future.
With 106,750 verified km and a preserved condition inside and out, this Mini Rover 35th Anniversary Edition is a strong candidate for collectors or drivers seeking an authentic piece of British motoring history with added usability and curb appeal.
