A brief history of the car-
first registered in 1969 it was used quite regulary by its first two owners up untill 1980 when it was bought by a colllector (with 30,000 miles) who restored the car. he kept the car in his showroom for 20 years using the car occasionally, covering just 15,000 miles up untill 2000 when it was sold to a family as a cheap run around however it was rarely used.
I bought the car in 2008 with just over 46,000 miles. for the first year i used the car on a daily basis however now it is only used for shows and occasionally on the weekend. the car is always garaged and rarely goes out in the rain.

Hello, is this mini still for sale?
I have seen it advertised elsewhere
I have tried emailing you but without response,
Is that rust in the boot?
and what is the situation about the rust underneath the car? Is it just surface or is it deeper. and finally are the sill ok?
Tom
