2022 Mini John Cooper Works Anniversary Edition announced

To celebrate 60 years of collaboration with the Cooper Family, MINI has unveiled the new John Cooper Works Anniversary Edition. As the classic Cooper Car Company Mini Cooper started – and won – its first race on track at the Snetterton Lombank Trophy with the number 74 and to acknowledge that heritage, the MINI John Cooper Works Anniversary Edition will be limited to 740 cars globally, with just 60 models destined for the UK. Available in the UK exclusively on the MINI three-door JCW hatch, the new John Cooper Works Anniversary Edition is Rebel green with contrasting white roof, door handles, mirror caps, headlight rings and bonnet stripes with a red accent line. Other features on the car include 18” John Cooper Works Course Spoke wheels, darkened rear glass and the classic Cooper Company logo, which can be found on door sill trims, side scuttles, C-pillars and on the centre spoke of the sports leather steering wheel. Additional exterior trim highlights include a waistline finisher in Piano Black high gloss and the number 74 on both the bonnet and doors.

The interior of the model is Piano black with Dinamica upholstery and the dashboard fascia has a special touch with signatures from three generations of the Cooper family; John Cooper, his son John Cooper and grandson Charlie Cooper. The most exclusive feature on the model is inside the driver’s door frame, where an emblem with John Cooper’s signature, a handwritten note of “1 of 740”, and the words “60 YEARS OF MINI COOPER – THE UNEXPECTED UNDERDOG” are displayed.

As standard, the model comes with Navigation Plus Pack, which includes an 8.8-inch display, Apple CarPlay, head-up Display, wireless charging and Digital Dashboard, and Comfort Plus Pack – which includes automatic air conditioning, seat heating, comfort access, rear review camera, park assistant and front PDC. Bluetooth hands-free is also included. The Anniversary Edition is available to order now, priced from £33,800 OTR for models with a manual transmission, or £35,500 OTR with an automatic transmission.
