Launched at the 1999 Tokyo motor show as a concept car, the Kopen (as it was called) was a kei-class sports car. This class was created in post-war Japan to popularize motoring and restricted engine and vehicle size but came with tax and insurance incentives.
While its rivals were looking a bit long in the tooth, the Copen was new and exciting – and it had a few tricks up its sleeve, like an electric folding aluminium roof and a turbo charged engine.
This three owner example comes with 10 stamps in the book, the last in 2021 at 63,385 miles, today the odometer is at 63,391. Our vendor has several cars and this has been parked up an not used. The battery is dead but it starts up on a jump start, the windows work and importantly the roof retracts as it should and then goes back in place. With a bit of TLC this fun car will soon be on the road again.
