COLLECTOR CAR — 1998 Rover Mini Cooper BSCC LTD model.
This Rover Mini Cooper BSCC was inspected for a client and sold at USS Nagoya auction in Japan on 20 February 2015 for 1,555,000 YEN FOB. Total price in Australia would be approx. $27,000 complied plus tyres and ORC’s (calculated at a rate of 92.6 yen to the dollar).
Engine and gear box were good. Engine oil was leaking from the head cover but only minor and fairly common for this model. Overall a nice low km example.
We only source and import the best vehicles with clean and tidy interiors, and only vehicles we would be pleased to own ourselves. This is why we are constantly told by clients that the vehicles we source are well above the condition of most others on the local market.
The pictures are typical of the information we provide prior to auction for each vehicle of interest, with any faults shown so you can clearly see the condition before we discuss whether to bid, and your budget.
Whether you’d like to import a 1998 Rover Mini Cooper BSCC LTD like this one, or another year, make or model, we can find it for you in nice condition.
It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and report to confirm condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without inspection.

G’day Geoff
Here are some photos of my Toyota MR-2 GT that you obtained for me from Japan a few years ago and delivered to Tasmania. You may remember.
I bought the car with intention of racing it in Tarmac Rallies. So far we have run it in Targa Tasmania three times. This year we were 20th in the Classic Cars section out of a field of 100 competitors. Our car is stock except for the 17″ wheels which puts us in the highest modified class. Most of the vehicles we compete against are highly developed racing machines.
I am frequently asked where I got the car from and how to go about doing so. There is an opportunity to promote Prestige Motorsport on the vehicle if you are interested.
I hope you enjoy the photos.
Regards
Lawrie
