Ive got this mini on ebay.. had it on here a while back but decided to remove it and get it mot'd and sell it for more.. but since then its litrally sat on the in laws drive way as i havent had the time to get it over to my dads so its been sat outside as all my others are in his barn so i havent even attempted to start work on it.. as i have too many other minis that need looking after and a nice mini 30 im fully restoring...

I know as well as every one else its worth more than £500 as shells are selling for £350 - £450.. and this broken for spares would be worth more than that... soo any rough guides of a price?!?... i know what it owes me .. just a shame if it doesnt sell on ebay... i will have to buck my ideas up and get it on my transporter over to the rents house and get it locked away at the back of the barn and tackle it in a few years along with the rest of them i have stored up waiting to be done... we have a 1963 mk1 mini been sat in the back of the barn for nearly 30 years mum has owned it for 36 years and that needs doing up along with another 6 - 7 minis i aquired over the xmas period sat in there in various states...

so whats the guide price on here? ...

id buy the door cards if you broke it

Don't know what shells you are looking at which are selling for 350-450 but I bet they don't have big holes in the door steps and around the rear subframe mounts...

IMO, it's worth 200-300 and if you get £500 think yourself lucky...

If it had all of it's original 25 trim and bits then maybe someone would take it on as a project, but it hasn't, so where's the value in spending 2 to 3 thousand rebuilding it and it still only being worth £1500.

I would say about £600, although there seems to be no seam where the wings meet the front panel, which suggests it could be full of filler?

A £450 shell will be very solid and shouldn't need much welding

[Jordie]

£200 to get it bk on the road, the labour costs for welding those holes would be more than that.

[garethleesmith]

Lol 200-300 um... Ok if u find me a complete running mini with everything on it that you can drive onto the loader for 300 needing work I have a huge barn.. I'll buy them.. All of them.. And the £200 is by doing it your self... As I can weld and do all mechanics my self .. Wouldn't be much more from some one who does welding other wise your getting ripped off... And I'd I break it then yes that's fine... There is a full mini 25 interior in immaculate condition for £100 on eBay... Soo I reckon £750 tops it will be in good condition soo if you pay £2000 - £3000 to get it restored...I'd change ur garage mate.. Lol

[Jordie]

i wouldnt pay a garage to work on any of my minis, but the people on ebay looking for a project might...that was my point. good luck with sale.

[garethleesmith]

Nah thanks for pointing it out :) i just forget that some people really can't weld or even change a bulb lol... But yeah a lot do rip people off lol thanks mate

[MaxAndPaddy]

I'd say £450 tops......sorry

But you can get a running project with a bit of MOT/Tax for not much more

Sad but true

Where is this full 25 interior on ebay for £100? just been looking as im curious as to how it compares to mine.

[OllieTheWelder]

I paid £650 for my mini, with only rust in the bottom of the doors none on the shell itself. Full MOT and Tax. I think you'd be lucky to get £500 too but things on eBay go for silly prices. £350-500 would be my guess.

[garethleesmith]

The bloke had it on here also... For the interior... I'll try and find it again...

[ANON]

"...in my opinion £200 max to get it ready for an mot..." can i book you for a stand up routine?

[Guess-Works.com]

No point banging on about how much the interior is worth, the one which is in the car is not a Mini 25 interior.... plus it's got the wrong steering wheel.
