1:12 Tamiya 12031 Rover Mini Cooper 1.3i 1991 - British Classic Car Plastic Model kit
Build a true British motoring icon on an impressive scale with the 1:12 Tamiya 12031 Rover Mini Cooper 1.3i from 1991. This updated re-release of Tamiya's classic model kit combines the unmistakable compact Mini shape with an extensively detailed interior, visible engine components and authentic finishing touches. Updated decals, additional masking stickers and floor carpet stickers make this version even more complete and give you plenty of opportunities to create a Mini packed with character.
The original Mini debuted in 1959 and cleverly combined front-wheel drive with a transverse engine layout to maximise passenger space within its compact body. John Cooper gave the concept a sporting character from 1961, and the Mini Cooper developed into a much-loved British classic with a strong racing and rally heritage. The Mini Cooper was revived in 1990, with the 1.3i receiving a 1.3-litre fuel-injected engine from 1991. Its combination of distinctive styling, enjoyable performance and legendary history made the Mini a true automotive icon.
Tamiya captures that character beautifully in 1:12 scale. Beneath the hinged opening bonnet, you can discover the detailed 1.3-litre inline-four fuel-injected engine, radiator, air cleaner, air-conditioning condenser, brake master cylinder and further mechanical elements. The interior is equally comprehensive, featuring the dashboard, pedals, three-spoke steering wheel, gear lever, front and rear seats, door panels, window regulators and large door pockets. An optional Union Jack roof decal, white bonnet stripes, emblems and instrumentation decals let you recreate the Mini's distinctive appearance. At Most-Models.com, you benefit from fast delivery and excellent customer service.
