Mini Cooper 1.3i

A new multi-point fuel injection system was introduced to keep the Mini Cooper compliant with new EC regulations. Drive-by noise directives were helped by moving the radiator to the front of the car and fitting a higher final drive gear ratio. Safety improvements included a driver's airbag, seat belt pre-tensioners and side impact protection beams. Interior changes included a full-width wood fascia and new trim. Top of the options list was a "Sports Pack" which included 13 inch wheels. In April 2000 with the announcement of the run out, there were two models, Cooper and Cooper Sport (featuring the Sports Pack). A red and silver Cooper Sport was the last classic Mini produced on 4 October 2000.
