The floor is better than my '89 mate...weird how a old mini feels more solidly built than a later model.. ;D

You can't break it. It's in better nick that the 2 heaps of rust I've got sitting outside my house.

Either restore it, or sell it on to someone else if you don't have the time or inclination. So which box do I put that in!? ;D

Restore it if you've got the time to do it properly - if not I'd let someone else have a crack.

Nice find!!!!
