Comments from the seller

2003 MINI Cooper R50 – Rare Silk Green Metallic – Immaculate Condition A beautifully presented example of the first-generation BMW MINI Cooper, built in April 2003 and finished in the distinctive and rarely seen Silk Green Metallic. This striking colour was a short-lived factory option, making it particularly appealing to MINI enthusiasts. Combined with the classic chrome detailing and unmistakable retro styling, it gives this early R50 Cooper a character all of its own. The vehicle is in immaculate condition, both inside and out, and has clearly been well cared for. It comes complete with its books, regular service history and genuine Cooper floor mats. Powered by the responsive 1.6-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine (85 kW / 115 hp), paired with a six-ratio CVT automatic transmission, it offers the enjoyable driving experience for which the original MINI Cooper became renowned. Additional highlights include: - Four brand-new tyres - Approximately 10 months' registration remaining - Excellent interior and exterior presentation - Books and regular service history - Distinctive factory Silk Green Metallic finish - Classic Cooper styling and chrome trim A wonderful opportunity to own a well-preserved early MINI Cooper in an uncommon and highly distinctive colour. Ideal for someone seeking a stylish, enjoyable everyday car or a particularly appealing example of the original BMW MINI generation.
