Hello TMFers. I am looking for a valuation for my mini which I am debating whether to sell or not to fund the next project!
The mini is a 1989 Mini 30 which has covered approximately 60,000miles. I can get the exact mileage from the MOT certificate as I have changed speedos a couple of times. Taxed until July 2014 and MOT until August 2014. This has an agreed valuation on my insurance of £6000. This mini has gone through a full bare shell rebuild, I have extensive pictures of this, a selection is shown below. This mini is modified, although has been done so it looks rather “standard” to joe public. Rough specification from the top of my head is as below:
