More Interesting Information -
The Mini 1000 Special (also referred to as the Mini 1000 Limited Edition or Stripey LE) was the first Limited Edition Mini sold and marketed in the UK.
In the 1970's Limited Edition versions of any car model were unheard of in the UK and therefore led the way for things to come.
The Mini 1000 Special was also the first round-nosed Mini with eye-ball air vents, twin chrome door mirrors and reclining front seats.
The Brooklands Green exterior colour was an MGB colour and differs from the Brooklands Green used on the 1999 John Cooper LE. Many Mini 1000 Specials painted in this colour retained a glacier white interior suggesting the bodyshell's exterior had been over-sprayed.
A very rare edition indeed as very few Mini 1000 Specials exist. This is mainly due to many of its unique features being adopted into standard production models over the following years leaving it difficult to tell a 1000 Special from any other '70s Mini.
