Heritage Lines of the Morris Mini Cooper 1275S Mk.I

The Morris Mini Cooper 1275S Mk.I changed small car thinking with its space-saving layout and characterful styling, first turning heads at the 1959 London Motor Show. Measuring just 3.05 metres long and 1.41 metres wide, it proved clever packaging could carry four adults without wasted space.

The front-wheel drive and transverse-engine arrangement freed up cabin room, letting designers devote more of the chassis to passenger comfort. Its Hydrolastic suspension smoothed bumps by balancing pressure between corners, giving a composed ride for such a compact car.

Sir Alec Issigonis blended economy and personality into a tiny package that became an icon. This Tamiya 1/24 scale kit offers a measured build that recreates the Mini Cooper's distinctive details for display or diorama work.

What parts come in the Tamiya 24039 kit and what needs painting?

The kit includes injection-moulded plastic parts, clear lenses and decal sheets; painting is required for bodywork and many trim items to match the original finish.

How complex is the assembly for a casual modeller?

Assembly is straightforward for hobbyists with basic modelling tools and glue; careful trimming and paint work make the difference in final presentation.
