1998 Rover Mini Cooper | Southwater, West Sussex

A 1998 Rover Mini Cooper, the sporting version of the small British classic. The Cooper name returned to the range under Rover in 1990, and the model is liked for its lively handling and a cabin that keeps everyone close together. This car is green with a black interior, a plain pairing that sits well against brick, stone or open countryside. It seats four, and its short, upright body takes up little room in a frame, so the location stays visible around it. Photography, advertising and editorial shoots can use that compact shape and colour as a bright accent. Film and TV work set in the 1990s gains a period car, and the Mini outline is familiar from The Italian Job. Music videos and events suit a car that is easy to place in a busy scene. It also makes a characterful arrival for a wedding or a birthday outing. The car is based in Southwater, West Sussex.
