Mini Cooper Racing: A Compact Champion

The Morris Mini Cooper became notable for combining clever packaging with competitive performance. First appearing in 1959, the Mini employed a front-engine, front-wheel-drive configuration to maximise passenger space in a small-bodied car, allowing four adults to travel in comfort.

Under John Cooper's direction the Mini evolved into a competitive racer, with progressive engine updates that culminated in the 1275cc version favoured by drivers. The Works Mini achieved success in a variety of racing series, including national saloon events and European touring competitions during the 1960s.

The Tamiya 24130 kit faithfully reproduces the Morris Mini Cooper Racing at 1/24 scale, offering accurate proportions and detailing that suit display models and period-focused collections.

How long does assembly typically take?

Build time varies with skill, but expect several evenings for careful assembly and painting; more detailed finishing will add to total time.

Can the model be customised with aftermarket parts?

Yes, experienced modellers often add aftermarket detailing such as photo-etched trim, upgraded wheels, or tyre sets to enhance realism.
