Mini I was watching ended with 0 bids, made him a realistic offer to be told he'd take what it didn't sell for minus £100... the search restarts!

Lol, I'm tempted to start running 2 eBay accounts just so I can message sellers offering 'em low prices repeatedly so they think it's worth less - had that happen to me a few times lol

Mini I'm looking at has a broken speedo - if it's gearbox end, how big a problem could it be? (Or how much could I knock off ;) )

Haha - "I'd take £1800 as that's what I paid for the car", "Well according to your eBay history you paid £1400..." - some people are planks lol

I would, but I'm hoping no one bids on it, then when it's failed to sell I can get back in touch with a "Told ya so, now sell it to me for 900 :P"

is £1500 too small a budget for an early-90's no-frills (but no rust) 998cc carb'd model?

Hey Max, I'm after a manual as I'm not an auto fan. First and third is auto - the third is gorgeous though. Second one looks just the ticket, small project, think it might sell for out my budget though, contacting seller, ty!
