    well I've got what i thought was a different subframe because the rear mounts don't fit, but everything else on the subframe is fitted with standard mini parts so other than the rear mounts everything else seems to fit.

    i guess its as the saying goes, someone is only going to pay what they want to pay. I didn't even have it offered for sale which is the funniest thing
