Wheels, Tyres & Brakes

Wheels - Filling the extended Cooper Sport wheel arches are the original unmarked and never refurbished 13 x 6 inch Cooper Sport Alloy Wheels. Fitted with all matching original 175/50 R13 Dunlop SP Sport 2000 tyres, the space saver spare has never been fitted.

Brakes - Servo assisted, diagonally split dual circuit system with front discs and drum rears.

Handling is razor sharp as you would expect from a Mini Cooper, rack & pinion steering, and independent suspension with Telescopic hydraulic dampers.
