1990 ROVER MINI THIRTY

998cc. This Rover Mini Thirty received a thorough restoration in 2022 that reportedly cost around £30,000. A professional engine and gearbox rebuild was carried out by MCCS Engineering, detailed in an accompanying booklet. The restoration also included powdercoated subframes, new brakes, brake and fuel lines, wiring loom, carpets, roof lining and refurbished seat foams and frames. The car was equipped with adjustable suspension and Superlite wheels, and panels were replaced as required with new panels from British Motor Heritage. Photos illustrating this work are in the vendor's possession and can be provided.

The Thirty was a luxurious, limited-edition model, built in 1989 to celebrate the Mini's 30th anniversary. The British market received 3000 examples, finished in either Cherry Red or Black. This example was reportedly in storage for at least 15 years prior to its restoration. It comes with an MoT to 3rd February 2026, and is supplied with a current V5C. First registered 15th March 1990.
