Hasegawa 20814 — 1/24 Mini Cooper Sports-Pack Limited (1988) in Amaranth Purple

This 1/24 scale plastic model kit represents the 1988 Mini Cooper Sports-Pack Limited as a limited-run release, with emphasis on accurate exterior proportions and surface detailing.

Background: Introduced in 1959, the Mini was a compact, transverse-engined small car whose packaging and layout influenced small-car design for decades. John Cooper's performance variants established the Mini Cooper name in the early 1960s by combining the compact Mini body with upgraded handling and engine tuning. Through the 1980s the Mini retained its transverse-engine, front-wheel-drive layout while receiving trim and equipment updates that produced special editions and dealer packages.

Model notes: This kit captures the 1988 Sports-Pack Limited look in an amaranth purple finish, concentrating on body panels, roofline, and trim details for display-oriented builders. Careful masking and finish work are recommended to reproduce two-tone and metallic effects common to late-period Minis. Check panel gaps and badge alignment when preparing the shell for paint; the limited-run nature means builders should allow time for fit adjustment and seam cleanup to achieve a neat display result.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Assembly: plastic model kit

A compact 1/24 replica of the 1988 Mini Cooper Sports-Pack Limited intended for builders seeking a display-ready small car with strong exterior fidelity and finish potential.

Basic modeling tools are recommended: sprue cutters, a sharp hobby knife, fine files, sanding sticks, plastic cement, and a selection of small brushes. Fine masking tape and a tidy workspace are particularly useful for the two-tone paintwork and decal application.
Kits of this type normally include clear glazing and lens parts. Always check the parts list or box illustration for confirmation of the specific contents for this release.
Refer to the kit's parts inventory to confirm decal inclusion. When supplied, decals typically cover badges and small exterior markings; modellers seeking extra precision sometimes opt for aftermarket decal sheets.
Start with a glossy primer, then apply multiple thin coats of matched purple, allowing each coat to dry fully. Light, even passes reduce orange peel; finish with a clear coat to deepen the colour and protect mask edges and decals.
