The poor thing doesn't get used enough.
So I think it needs to go to a good home 
1969 Austin Mini
Professionally Converted
Running a 2002 5PW Fuel Injected Yamaha R1 Engine.
Running Costs
Road Tax: FREE [Tax Exempt]
Insurance: CHEAP [Classic Car with guaranteed valuation of £11000 I pay £120 pa with RH Insurance]
Fuel Economy: EXCELLENT [35mpg if you take your time ;p ]
Completely mint inside and out and totally "sorted".
Everything works exactly as it should.
- New Mini shell fully restored and painted inside and out in old english white. [Plenty of the build photos available]. New panels that are fitted include; wings, front panel, a panels, flitch panels, genuine skuttle panel, genuine door skins, sills and rear valance.
- It's got a new rear sub-frame powder coated red to match the Pro-motive front one and the 6 point bolt-in roll cage.
- The Yamaha R1 engine [180bhp (182PS, 133.9kW) @ 12,500rpm] has covered a guaranteed 21890 miles and is fitted with a Barnett Clutch and a Power Commander.
- The clocks are R1, fully functional and fitted with a speedo healer.
- A small fortune has been spent at Newton Commercial [almost £3000! [http://www.newtoncom...-mini/model-19/. Seats [front and rear], door cards, crackle headliner, deep red carpet and rear pocket liners etc.
- The roof skin and bumpers are carbon fiber.
- Brakes are Minisport 4 pots with vented, grooved discs and Mintex 1144 pads and Minifin rear drums.
- Wheels are 6x12 Force Racing split rims with Yokohama A048 tyres
- It is fitted with adjustable suspension front and rear as well as Gaz shocks.
- This mini is brutally fast, stops very well and handles great.
- The Britax decals are easily removable and then you have a real "sleeper" that can surprise many a performance car
This mini cost about 10 grand in parts alone not including labour, paint and the initial cost of the car!
Every part, nut and bolt is new and I have every receipt from its build.
It could be used every day if you so wished because it has 4 seats as well as rear seatbelts. I think it is more suited as a weekend toy though as i have used it.
Payment: £500 deposit on completion of auction, balance via paypal or Bacs
Viewing: Highly recommended but due to the performance please don't think you can just rock-up and drive it. Also, due to the number of horror stories I've read about, viewing will not be at my home but at a mutually convenient place. Sorry, but I've read too many cases of cars being viewed then stolen.
I'm looking for offers around £9500 [but don't be shy. Make me an offer anyway ;-) ]
