How old is this listing? https://www.berlinet...0-1275-gt-mini/

£30k seems like alot

[hazpalmer14]

I thought that had sold before but for a lot less then that! Who ever bought that for 30k is mental

certainly not cheap, but considering what it would cost to build an equivalent today using an early GT i don't think it's too outlandish.

 

not keen on the bonnet bulge, but do like the front mounted s/c & blow through arrangement.

I think a NACA duct would look great instead of that box.

It's all about keeping a mini snapped car on the road...

Regardless of what's been done.

All are good...

Extensively lightened, not just the wallet - they threw away the alternator. Maybe they could rig up a plug for a ev charging station and plug in when they are at the shops.

The alternator (a small one) was put on the other end of the charger drive

When you search Mini on their website, it says it sold for £6457. So I’m not sure where the 30k came from!

I think the £30k was a reference to the cost of a nice Cooper s these days?  I have to say the installation looks cumbersome compared with the Vmaxscart for example? But a nice car for the money paid.

Only part of that early 1275gt is the log book
