Morris Mini Cooper MkI (Peter Sellers)

Categories: Peter Sellers : Vanguards

If you were a celebrity in the sixties then a modified Mini was the cool car to own, and that trend was started by Peter Sellers’ 1963 ‘Wicker Mini’, modelled here.

Sellers asked Rolls-Royce dealership HR Owen to customize his Mini and they commissioned Hooper (Motor Services) Ltd, the spares and servicing arm of the former coach-building firm, to modify the car. It cost Ł2600 (when a standard Cooper was Ł679) but featured up-rated leather seats, electric windows and the famous hand stencilled wicker-work effect on its sides. Sellers used the car in the Pink Panther film ‘A Shot in the Dark’.

It is 1:43 scale, approx. 7 cm / 2.8in long and made by Vanguards.

Limited edition of 2200 pieces worldwide complete with numbered certificate.
