OK who said break???? ;D

It's not a metro!!!

Minis are for restoring, or at worst selling. Not for breaking :(

I don't think it looks too bad. Save em...save em all

******* with it....i set about looking it over today and came across a a hole or three...nothing serious just the usual stuff....so i've decided to chuck what i can on ebay and sell whats left including the shell.
I know i'm gonna get slated for doing this but my situation determines what i should do..lack of time/funds and energy...so hopefully it wont be too harsh...and many thanks for your comments but i just aint got any enthusiasm for another rebuild.
If anyone wants the bare shell (maybe with motor front and rear sub)with v5 they can have it for £10 if they travel for it.

Thing is i can make more breaking it than selling it whole...everyone knows i paid £100 for it so i'd be seen as a nutter asking £250... :P

restore it as itll be bringing an oldie back to life, keeping another one off the scrappie.it dont look that bad from the pics, i'd say its better to pile money into a car of that age as you'll get more praise and self content for it. also it may well be worth more in years to come!

not a nutter as theres always a profit to be made, your the lucky one finding it so cheap!!
