Wind Back Time
2000 Mini Cooper Sport
Specifications
Description
Yep, Mini's have an ageless appeal.
They have been around in amazingly unchanged form for more than 40 years - a marvel of ingenious design and packaging; a celebrated race history, and, at the end of the day, they still suffer from endearingly terminal cuteness.
Like the original Beetle and Model T, the Mini is one of the landmark automotive designs of the 20th century. And as you've probably heard by now, production of the so-called Classic Mini was finally over in the year 2000 after 41 continuous years, with more than 5.3 million served.

After time spent driving and enjoying this classic Mini, it's fair to say we really "get it." We fully understand why it's been such a motoring icon for so many years. It's obsessively cute and giggly fun to drive. Basically the last hoorah before BMW took over the Mini Cooper reins in 2001, these models have always surfed a great big wave of hype, often appearing on one those drive-before-you-die lists that haunt the interweb.
So yes, there you have it, with your backside kissing the asphalt and your hands gripping the unassisted steering wheel, the Cooper Sport feels like an indoor go-kart with a body bolted to it. There’s a granular intimacy flowing through its controls that you simply don’t get in most modern machinery anymore, which is why you should add one of these to your collection, as these cars will only appreciate in value.
Will be sold WOF'd and Registered if sold in New Zealand.

Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.
The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.
The Purchaser is encouraged to personally fully inspect the vehicle and also to have the vehicle inspected, and fully assessed by an experienced, independent, specialist garage - before committing to purchase. While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
The Purchaser acknowledges that they have read and fully understand this notification and the nature of a car which is many years old.
