MINI Sport Pack promises improved used values

The MINI Hatchback and MINI 5dr hatchback are now available with a Sport Pack that adds extra visual impact. Plus, MINI says that models with the Mini Sport Pack could be worth more when you come to sell them on.

The MINI Sport Pack is priced between £3,300 and £4,500 and adds bonnet stripes, sports suspension, 17-inch alloy wheels in silver or black and a John Cooper Works Spoiler. Inside, there's a sporty John Cooper Works steering wheel, cruise control and buttons for the stereo system.

Despite its name, the Sport Pack also includes a range of more practical features, such as passenger-seat height adjustment and additional storage spaces.

MINI says choosing the Sport Pack means your car could be worth more when you come to sell. A MINI One Sport Pack could be worth 25% more than the standard MINI One, according to MINI Financial Services.

The price of the Sport Pack varies due to the amount of standard equipment fitted: the more standard equipment a car features, the less the Sport Pack costs.

The full list of equipment included in the MINI Hatchback Sport Pack (in addition to items fitted as part of the optional Chili Pack) is as follows:

• Part-leather upholstery
• Multifunction controls on the steering wheel
• Bonnet stripes
• Sport suspension (not for MINI One & One D)
• 17-inch Track Spoke alloy wheels in silver or black
