Can't say I have seen one so far, I'm not sure they sold so many compared to the Cooper Sports at the time, although I do like them

On how many left there are only 168 Rover Mini Seven's left.

I'd say probably less than 20 of them are works S.

I have never seen another Seven S works, I'm guessing probably 5 were made at the most. After all, most people at the time would rather have had a Cooper S than a Seven S. I absolutely love your car though, hope to see it at a show one day.

dont you just hate spoilt kids lol! only joking.

a salvage yard near me has the v5 and vin plates for an s works, they guy who owns teh yard offered it me when i picked up another mini off him a while ago. obviously i didnt take it. not much use without a stolen one to use it on......where did you say you live again o.p? lol (again, im only joking dont worry)

the other thing i know about them is that i dont think they actually produce 90bhp, im pretty sure i can remember someone else starting a thread on here a while ago about it.

In March 2000, with less than six months of production to go, Rover announced a new range of three Minis: the Mini Se7en, the Cooper Classic and the Cooper Sport. They had identical MPi engines. The differences between them and earlier models was cosmetic. The Mini Se7en was intended to have a retro look harking back to the original 1959 Austin Se7en although this is very superficial. The Cooper Classic had 12" wheels and the Cooper Sport had 13" wheels, wider wheel arch extensions and other sports pack features. The Cooper Sport was the basis for the last ever Mini the Cooper Sport 500. The Cooper Sport was the biggest seller while the other two did not sell well.

Thanks dizzy, I was searching google but I just couldn't find anything on it. Shameful of me not to know when I own a Cooper Sport >_<
