Description
After designing the Mini in 1959, Alec Issigonis developed a sports version to the Mini in 1961, through the intervention of his friend John Cooper: the output increased from 34 to 55 hp. In 1963, this Cooper S developed 70 hp and was fitted with an extra tank, which explains why there are two filler caps, on the right and left sides. Here we have a 1967 model year with a new grille.
