Rarely-seen Oxygen Blue Cooper model;
showing only 73,706 miles; a stylish economical
runabout
Launched in late 2006, the second-generation R56 Mini was built on the
huge success of its predecessor with a cleaner design, improved refinement and a
new range of engines developed jointly with PSA. Lighter on its feet and more
grown-up inside, it retained the cheeky
character that made the modern Mini such a hit, while offering better economy,
sharper handling and a more comfortable ride. The Cooper sat neatly in the
middle of the range, combining lively performance with sensible running costs,
and quickly became the best-selling variant.
Finished in the rarely-seen Oxygen Blue and showing only
73,706 miles, this tidy Mini Cooper presents as a well-cared-for example of the breed, offered
here with a notably long MOT.
First registered in 2007, the car shows six
stamps in the service book, and comes with two working keys, It was driven to
the sale and has been starting and running for photographs and videos, with no
drama reported.
With an impressive specification including the Chilli
pack, piano black interior trim, chrome line interior, 16” bridge spoke alloy
wheels, carbon black cloth/leather interior, roof and mirror caps in black
making a total cost of £2,295 for the optional equipment
alone.
The
Oxygen Blue paintwork remains one of the more desirable and rarer colours of the
period, this smart little hatchback looks just the ticket for someone seeking a
stylish, economical runabout. With
values of tidy R56 Coopers firming up, this one seems a straightforward
proposition.
