1968 ROVER MINI

1968 Morris Mini Cooper MkII 998cc

An exceptional opportunity to acquire one of the rarest and most sought-after variants of the classic Mini, this 1968 Morris Mini Cooper MkII 998cc is a genuine UK example with an enviable ownership history. Having had just six owners from new, the majority of whom were members of the same family, the car also displays a recorded mileage of just 77,000 miles, further adding to its appeal.

Finished in its attractive factory Island Blue coachwork, this MkII Cooper presents beautifully and has recently benefited from a programme of expenditure, ensuring it is both an enjoyable and dependable classic to own. The combination of careful long-term ownership and sympathetic maintenance has resulted in a car that retains the charm and character for which the Mini Cooper is rightly celebrated.

The MkII Cooper occupies a unique place in Mini history, produced for only a short period and in far smaller numbers than the ubiquitous standard Mini. As a result, genuine Morris-badged MkII Cooper models have become increasingly desirable amongst collectors and enthusiasts alike, offering the perfect balance of rarity, practicality and engaging driving dynamics.

The lively 998cc engine, responsive handling and unmistakable character combine to deliver one of the most rewarding classic driving experiences available. Whether destined for local shows, weekend touring or simply enjoying on your favourite B-road, this Cooper is a wonderful example of one of Britain's most iconic sporting classics.

Accompanied by its history file and recent expenditure, this 1968 Morris Mini Cooper will be supplied by Classicwise following a full major service, comprehensive pre-delivery inspection and a fresh MOT.

Ready to be enjoyed by its next custodian, this increasingly rare MkII Cooper represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a highly original and well-cared-for example of one of the most collectable Minis ever produced.
