Thanks for looking at my advert for my mini which I can’t believe I’m selling. I’ve had a lot of fun with this car but due to having too many cars and obligations I have to sell it, well I don’t have too but it would make my life easier.
Basically it’s an ex feature car from mini mag, I don’t know what issue but will get it to sell with the car. It had a nine page spread though.
It was bought and built 2003-4, full body rebuild, front subframe conversion, 1.8 VVC engine put in, rear axle mods, adjustable coil overs… and much more. Look below for the spec.
It’s also got a close ratio gearbox which is insane for this car, it accelerates at an unbelievable rate, get it on the strip with some slicks and it has to be close to three seconds to 60. However it has a quite long 5th so is ok for motorways. I reckon it would be awesome for hill climbs.
The body and paint is good and interior is perfect…. I’ll tidy and paint the engine bay while I wait to sell it but don’t expect to wait long…
I’ve beaten countless cars off the lights…. It handles like it’s on rails thanks to the adjustable coil-overs and torsen LSD… it’s perfect.
It has a new MOT and I may tax it….
You can get in touch to view and I’ll take you out in it…. Bring spare pants…
The price is £5500.. check the spec below, you could split it for more than this.
I’m in Brighton but can be in Stratford upon Avon at times…
