The car is SORN and has been off the road for almost 5 years, so obviously it cannot be driven away. However, I have my own trailer & tow vehicle, I can deliver to you if an agreed price is met (sale of car & cost of delivery will need to be worked out - contact me to find out)
I think that covers almost everything. There has been SOOO much work that has gone into this car over my years of ownership. I bought it as a totally standard Mini City E, Ive taken it round the Nurburgring, I then swapped engines to the 1275 & spent about 2 years doing a complete nut & bolt rebuild and turning it into the Miglia replica you see here.
Obviously I have a lot of receipts for parts & work over the time (see photos), but there is also a lot of work & parts which I dont have receipts for. However, upon viewing the car, youll begin to appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it.
Price - I'm asking £5,495, but I am very open to offers as well. Just message me, all I can say is no :)
Thanks for looking. Any questions - let me know.
David.
