Hi, I have decided with much regret that I will have to sell my Mini due to current work and financial situations

Effy is a 1989 Cherry Red Mini Thirty, at the moment she needs a fair bit of work to get her back on the road:

-All new tyres
-She will need a full respray
-Rust on the scuttle panel and it has come in near the speedo
-Rust on the rear valance
-Small bit of rust on the back nearside wheel arch
-Engine isn't starting since the spark plugs were changed
-She was cat C damage around 12 years ago
-She has a green boot as her old one leaked and was dented

Some good bits:
-The rust on the scuttle panel can probably be patched as it isn't that big
-The front wings are in a rust free condition
-Good battery fitted not long ago
-Interior is in an ok conditionm, small rip at the back of the drivers seat which can easily be resewn
-Only 60,000 miles on her



The bonnet paint is no good anymore as it has white spray paint on it.

Over all she wouldn't need too much to get working again, but the way work is at the moment and running another car, I simply just can't afford to fix her for at least another year or she'll just rot away more.

I'd rather somebody bought her as a project as she deserves to be on the road again after 10 years being stored away.

I'm going to ask for £850 £700, but sensible offers are welcome.

(She's in the Walkden M28 area)

any other photos?

[Nathan94]

I'll get some up soon, car isn't kept at my home, but viewings are welcome.

The car now has a green boot as the old one leaked and the car paint looks better in the wet, but it will need painting again.
