125bhp!!!!!! Not sure if I like it or not...think I do :lol:

Here is my 1991 Mini for sale. This is not your average Mini and so please read the description carefully. This is a serious piece of kit and is most likely not going to be your everyday transport. Its a racing car for the road!!!

This is a very rare, unique and special car!! It has has a full MINISPEED Supercharger conversion and new engine carried out and now has a proven 125 BHP.

The car is mental!!!


Registered 24/10/1991 as a Mini 1000 City E and on a J plate. Rest assured this is no longer your standard Mini City E!!!

I will run through a few of the larger receipts that are with the car to offer an explanation of the work that has been carried out;

£1,600 - Body restoration by Peter McInnes Body Repairs - New panels including Wing, Sills, Doors, Inner arches, Lower panels, Wheel arches, Prime and respray in Bentley Amethyst Blue Pearlescent with Silver painted stipes.

£6,900 - Mini Speed new Fast Road (Mini Speed) engine and re-con gearbox (Crash box) Supercharger kit and much more - A huge invoice detailing the full build!!!

£274 - Corbeau Clubman 2004 seats by Mini Speed

£418 - Electronic ignition supplied and fitted plus full service

There are hundreds, if not thousands of pounds of additional recipts for all sorts of things. A very professional job has been done on this car.

The above work was all carried out in 2009 and approx. only 600 miles ago!!!


The car is in lovely condition throughout, the paint is nice, the interior is very tidy (new carpets etc) and it drives really well. The performance is crazy. This is a very fast Mini and the noise it makes must be heard to be believed!!!

If you are into Minis then this is one of the meanest that you will see!

The pictures were taken today and show the car how it is. There is a small bit of bubbling just under the centre of the rear window but its minor. The rest of the paint is very good. Theres a little bit of rough paint on the drivers door but its minor and not worth mentioning. Overall the car looks very fresh and is overall stunning. See the photos.

At the last MOT (400 miles ago) the car passed after some work including some sill welding. The only advisory notes on the pass certificate are that the front seats cant be tilted forwards, welding standard cant be seen due to underseal (same place MOT'd and welded it!!!) and that there are no sun visors fitted!!


The tyres all have excellent tread depth.

There is a box of spares in the boot of the car.

The car is fitted with; Bullet mirrors, Privacy glass, 7J x 13" Minilites, UK wheel centres, Chrome gearknob and handbrake handle, New carpets, Upturned sports exhaust, Cream Mini 40 dials, Vented bonnet (Side mounted radiator), clear rear lights and more.

It is de-bumpered at the rear.

It is taxed until the end of January 2012.


The current mileage on the car is showing as 5,950. The conversion was carried out at 5,346 miles. Obviously this is not the actual total mileage of the car but then its been totally rebuilt.

The car was rolling road tested in August 2011 and has a print out showing 125 BHP and a dyno top speed of 137 MPH!!!

The car is HPI clear.

I have only just got the car as I took it in as part payment for my old car. It isn't really my cup of tea as I have never been into Minis but I could see the value in it.

I am selling it as i need the money to put towards my next car!!

This Mini has been advertised recently at a well respected car dealer for £9,995.00. They beleive that this is its genuine value but this auction is the chance for someone to grab a bargain. There is NO RESERVE and the start price is low. If you see this car advertised elsewhere then that is an old advert. The car is here with me, I own it and I am selling it on EBAY without reserve.

The dealers advert will be taken down ASAP but may still be on the web over Christmas.


I dont know much more about the car but I will do my best to answer any questions that you have. Alternativly you are welcome to come and view the car during the auction. I am based just outside of Horsham in West Sussex and should be around over the holidays.

If you decide to bid without viewing then you will be expected to complete the purchase.

Cash only on collection from Horsham, West Sussex and within 5 days of the end of the auction please.

Sold as seen on a private sale basis with no warranty implied or given.

Any questions, please do ask.

NO RESERVE.
