2006 Mini GP 1662

Just 400 of these 'special' hot Minis were allocated to the UK. Many have been used as track day cars or have been heavily modified. This car is totally standard, has service history, two sets of keys and all books. All the GP's were numbered; this car is number 1662 and has covered just 21,000 miles - possibly the lowest mileage example in existence!

The original GP was released in 2006 to mark the end of the first generation of “21st Century” MINI, developed by MINI under the ownership of BMW and first sold in England in 2001. Unique features include:

Assembled in Bertone, Italy from a “body-in-white” kit manufactured at the MINI plant in Oxford, England

The most powerful first generation production engine, with John Cooper Works upgrade, further boosted to approx 215 bhp / 180 ftlb torque

Weight savings of almost 100 lb by removing the rear seat and substituting aluminum rear control arms

Unique “Thunder Blue” body color, with silver roof and contrasting red mirror caps

Unique aero kit, including carbon fibre rear “wing” spoiler and underbody panelling for improved aerodynamics

Unique 18″ lightweight wheels

Unique “anthracite” speedometer & rev counter dials
