The interior remains original and is probably one of the finest condition original interiors you’ll see hence I never altered it, I didn’t have the heart!
This mini is utterly reliable, professionally serviced regularly and mechanically very sound and ‘goes’ well. Rolling road tuned, it will give a few 1275s a run for their money!
Selling with MOT which expires in Jan 19.
Spent loads more so looking for offers around £5,000 but everything is negotiable. Only selling to fund a new project.
I’d also consider a swap (+/- cash) for a solid proper original mk3.
Based in North Devon for viewing and test drive which I’d recommend.
Also the mini will be at Castle Combe on 29th September for Mini Action Day.
Happy to provide photos etc on request.
