Heritage of the Morris Mini Cooper Racing

The Morris Mini Cooper became a motorsport icon thanks to clever packaging and inventive engineering. Released in 1959, the Mini used a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout to maximize cabin room while keeping the exterior compact, allowing four adults to fit comfortably in a small footprint.

John Cooper applied his racing know-how to turn the Mini into a competitive racer, advancing engine options through several upgrades and finishing with the popular 1275cc unit that was well regarded by drivers. The Works Mini versions achieved notable success in events such as the British Saloon Car Championships and the European Touring Car Challenge during the 1960s.

This Tamiya model kit reproduces the Morris Mini Cooper Racing with attention to scale and detail, making it a strong choice for collectors and hobbyists who want an authentic display piece from motorsport history.

What scale and level of detail does this kit offer?

The kit is rendered in 1/24 scale with fine exterior and interior detail appropriate for display models; decals and trim parts reflect period race presentation.

Is this model good for someone new to building plastic kits?

It is rated toward hobbyists with some experience, but patient beginners can complete it using basic modelling tools and careful painting.
