Mini
John Cooper, who died in 2000, began the partnership with Mini 60 years ago with the very first Mini Cooper being launched in September of 1961. Limited to just 740 units, this new model that celebrates Mr. Cooper s contributions to the Mini brand. But where does the reasoning for 740 units of this new offering come from? Well, 74 was the starting number that the Cooper wore on its very first successful track racing appearance. Early racing cars designed by John Cooper wore green paint with white accents, so the launch color for the Anniversary Edition is British Racing Green metallic, although Midnight Black metallic is also available. JCW models can also get Rebel Green paint, but all models get white accents for the roof, mirror caps, door handles, and headlight and taillight surrounds.
