Mini Cooper E – Classic Shape, Electric Soul (1996/2023)
An electric original Mini? Why not. One of the most influential cars of the 20th century, reborn as a thoroughly contemporary electric motorcar. The brilliance of it lies in this: you need sacrifice neither the cultishly compact original Mini silhouette nor the enjoyment of a genuinely potent power unit.
The Mini-e was conceived and built by Englishman Ryan Salton. Over the course of three years – and at a cost exceeding CHF 80,000 – he created a highly professional, one-off example, which successfully passed the Swiss MFK inspection in December 2023. The basis was a 1996 Mini, with renewed sills and floor panels. To ensure the safe integration of the battery system, the bodyshell was structurally modified and a dedicated water-cooling system for the EV components installed. The suspension is height-adjustable, and the steering features electric assistance.
Inside, the new owner will find a freshly trimmed leather interior and a Panasonic multimedia system, naturally up to date with Bluetooth connectivity and DAB radio. The 54 kW motor offers three driving modes: Eco, Standard and Sport. Gear changes – yes, proper gear changes – are made via the original gearbox. With a range of approximately 120 kilometres, the Mini is well suited to everyday use. For those wishing to venture further, a third battery can be retrofitted to extend the range still more. Comprehensive documentation covering the car’s history and its conversion, together with an owner’s manual, forms part of the sale. Anyone seeking a compact classic with which to travel electrically will be hard pressed to find a finer example than this Mini-e.

Auction hammer price and minimum bid
Auction hammer price and minimum bid
The bid is accepted by the highest bidder after the minimum price or higher has been reached, either after the bidding period has expired or at the moment when no further bids are submitted and the auction is closed by Emil Frey Classics.
Acceptance of the minimum bid – “Sold”
When the bid is accepted and the minimum bid (minimum price) or higher is reached, a legally binding purchase contract is concluded between the seller and the highest bidder.
Bid accepted below the minimum bid – “Reserved, not sold”
If a bid is made at a price below the minimum bid (minimum price), the vehicle is considered “not sold subject to reservation.” Vehicles that could not be sold during the auction or for which the minimum bid was not reached can be renegotiated after the auction in consultation with the consignor or owner. In such cases, Emil Frey Classics acts exclusively as an intermediary between the potential buyer and the consignor or owner, unless it expressly acts as the seller itself. A purchase contract is only concluded with the express consent of both parties.
Reservation of Emil Frey Classics
Emil Frey Classics reserves the right to decide freely on the acceptance of bids. In particular, it may refuse or cancel the bid, interrupt or cancel the auction, withdraw the auction item or put it up for auction again, and reject bids.
