GarageScout Take

This 1968 Mini Cooper S has a replacement engine and some updates like power-assisted brakes and aftermarket steering wheel, which make it a mixed-spec example rather than strictly original.

Strengths

  • British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate confirming factory colors and equipment
  • Equipped with dual SU carburetors and twin fuel tanks consistent with Cooper S specification
  • Power-assisted front disc brakes improve stopping performance

Watch For

  • Replacement 1,275cc engine rather than original unit
  • Filled-in holes from previously installed wheel arch extensions
  • Replacement gearshift knob and parking brake handle
  • Total mileage unknown beyond 65,000 displayed on 5-digit odometer
