The car is probably the lowest mileage Paul Smith mini for sale currently at just over 23,000 miles
A folder full of History including a letter from the original owner and the postcard she received through the post that made her buy the car
MOT History back to 2006
MOT done last week with only 2 small advisories
Stored in garage for last 4 years
All servicing carried out by Mini Specialists
1000 miles since last service
Recent work on the floors and sills and fully under sealed
It has the plaque in the glovebox which states "An Edition of 1800" however I understand only 300 UK cars were ever made and a quick check on HowManyLeft shows that at Q1 2017 there were 117 licenced and 113 registered as SORN so 1 of 230 currently remaining in the UK
The mini does need some work and I have therefore priced the car accordingly. Overall this is a nice little car but could be something really special with not too much work. I am available for viewings evening and at weekends.
Roof has some dents that will need removing
Bubbling below headlights, A-Pillars and a tiny amount under the windscreen
Synchro between 2nd gear and 1st needs replacing - A crunch can be heard if gear changing from 2nd to first quickly, however if a gear change is done slowly, no crunch can be heard. This issue doesn't really bother me and the can can be used completely fine with it but can be fixed quite easily if time allows
The car is best appreciated when viewed so please come and see it if you can
Any questions please give me a ring
