MINI Cooper S race car R56 

It is with regret that I advertise my pride and joy Mini Cooper S R56 racecar. This has been built by myself and father over the last 6 years, with all equipment listed below being new or rebuilt, and has only been used on track a small number of times (around 10 occasions). In the 4 race meetings it has completed, it has achieved 4 class podiums in a competitive grid of BMW’s. It could be used in many series such as cscc, ctcrc, castle combe saloons, mini challenge cooper s class (with a few modifications) amongst others.

 

The base car is a low mileage (circa 50k miles) Cooper S, and the car has been built and maintained to a very high level.

Just to finish this, this car has been a labour of love and certainly could not be built for anywhere near the advertised price. Serious enquiries only. May px with classic/retro racecar. Thanks.
