Possibly the most over priced Mini EVER...
£125,000.00
Granted 1/2 is going to charity....

If it was Alec Issigonis's maybe, but some over-rated over paid DJ ? Totally ridiculous at 1/2 the price.

I see an auction with a 99p starting bid??
Personally I don't think it being Chris Evan's old car puts any extra value in it, he's not owned it for nearly a decade and I don't think it was ever involved in any famous events??
Celebrity value on items is very subjective, where one person sees value others may see nothing.

I wonder if Chris Evans was the winning bidder? Love him or hate him, he does do a lot for charity. Which Charity benefits from the proceeds, does anyone know?

Apart from the fact that Chris Evans (in my opinion a C list celebrity) owned it, it is not even very nice in it's current state, The roof wants returning to original and I want the stupid side stickers to come off. Then you have a nice Mini worth about £6,000.00 if it is a sound as it looks

Half is going to Children In Need which is good....they have now ended the £125,000.00 advert, I advised them they were unlikely to get 10% of that...
It is up for auction too which I missed...

The steering wheel is mullered, drivers door card looks to be coming apart at the bottom and the seats look oddly dirty? (possibly just the light??)
Body looks to be in great shape though

Hmm, makes mine look real cheap, when I get round to selling it.

It allegedly made exactly £25K !!
What a lovely round figure
12.5K to Children in Need which is excellent and 12.5 K for a not so good MK3 plastered with a crisp advert...??
Not in the real world
How strange when I said it would be lucky to make 12.5K...
When you look at the bid history it made £6100 (slidehammer was right) ....then was bid by one person to 24900 and then a solo bid of 25 K....
I can only think of one person with so much money to waste on such a 'quality' project...guess it will surface in Chris Evans collection...still at least he will be able to put 12.5 K against his tax bill as a charity donation.

The listing says the car is no longer available?
Does that mean it sold for £25K outside of the auction or the auction got to £25K and then shut down?
