1971 Morris Mini Cooper S
Described as presented, not as certified. When the paperwork does not prove the badge, the announcement says so.
Photographs are licensed stock images used to illustrate a design demonstration. They are not this vehicle, because this vehicle does not exist.

The difference between "is a Cooper S" and "is presented as a Cooper S" is the difference between a claim we can support and one we cannot.
It is on the amber light for that reason alone; the car itself is straightforward.
It sold in the previous sale. The hammer price is sample data.
Specification
As catalogued
Every VIN here begins QOQ and contains the letters O and Q, which never appear in a real vehicle identification number. They are deliberately impossible and identify nothing.
