The new Mini Cooper Oxford Edition celebrates 25 years of the BMW-developed new Mini’s revival at the famous Oxford factory.
The new model has debuted at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and is the centrepiece of Mini’s fun and feature-packed stand.
Finally replacing the 1959 original, the new Mini went into production on the same Oxford site in 2001. Several million new models later, the new limited edition celebrates its quarter-century.
It’s a strictly limited edition too: there will be just 125 Mini Cooper Oxford Editions in the UK, priced from £30,120.
There will be no missing the new model, which celebrates its British heritage with a full Union Jack roof. The central red and white stripe also runs the entirety of the car, incorporating both the bonnet and the bootlid.
Mini’s offering a choice of three colours – Chili Red, Indigo Sunset Blue and Blazing Blue – all with white door mirror caps and 18-inch wheels.
Detail touches include coordinated wheel hubs and Union Jack valve caps
The Mini Cooper Oxford Edition is more subtle inside. There’s a textured printed flag ‘6 o’clock’ steering wheel element, circular Union Jack logo on the driver’s side floormat and unique door sills.
Mini’s also offering a range of ‘Oxford Capsule’ accessories, including T-shirts, caps, bags and stickers.
The new Mini Cooper Oxford Edition will be available as both a Mini Cooper C and the high-performance Mini Cooper S.
