After seeing 4 Mini's, all described as "Good for year" "Usual Mini rust spots" and similar mis-descriptions etc and finding them to be absolute rot buckets upon viewing I found a literally SUPERB Mini last night. It's only an F reg City E and I haven't gone over it properly yet as it was very late but it seemed pretty much brand new with big arches, big wheels, white roof etc, looks fantastic !

I'll try and get a couple of pics in a bit ! :grin:

Way to go, but I assume it's sold to you !!!

Yes, me :grin: I can't get pics of the actual car for about an hour but here's a pic "of a pic" of it (there is a big folder full of pictures and receipts etc)

Forgot, there was a new 1293 engine in the deal too ! (it's a 998 at the moment)

Thanks for the comments ! I'm REALLY pleased with it, just looking it over now - there is ZERO rust, it's like a new car, here's a couple of close up pics where I have seen all kinds of rot on the other Mini's I looked at. I'll have to move a lot of stuff and other cars to get a full pic of the car but can take any other close up pics anyone suggests of rust areas to check ! (It's a small garage :sad: ) The wheels are terrible though but it does have 4 virtually new 175 Bridgestone "Potenza" Tyres.
