It could be 'consuelo' which is Spanish for comfort
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who do not possess it.

THe 1275-C was the forst mini done in Spain. AT this time we had no permission to use the Cooper name. Therefore, the AUTHI managers added this C to the engine capacity number in order to indicate that the car was something related to the Cooper with the top engine developed at this moment. In practical terms, this was not a Cooper whatsoever!!!
