Hello,

 

Can you fine folks please help to give me a valuation on a 1968 Mk3 Riley Elf with 84,904 miles on the clock.

 

The car was totally nut and bolt rebuilt by my brother, who was the go to guy on the Isle of Man for Mini's.  Sadly he passed away earlier this year.

 

The car is totally original, standard and period correct.  The shell is totally rust free and has been resprayed.

 

The engine and gearbox has been completly stripped and rebuilt, basilcally everything has been done to it.

 

The chrome work has a small amount of age related pitting and wear.  20260707_193842.jpg   57.76K   1 downloads  20260707_194038.jpg   60.15K   1 downloads  20260707_194105.jpg   57.96K   0 downloads  SATU2413.jpg   89.8K   0 downloads  SATU2415.jpg   90.87K   0 downloads  SATU2419.jpg   46.46K   0 downloads

Nice looking mini.

I’m no expert on these, they are rarer than round nose minis and unfortunately (don’t shoot the messenger) less desirable.

I just had a quick peak on car and classic and there’s a few on there between £10k and £15k, so that’s a good gauge in my humble opinion.

Good luck.

As nice as Elf's and Hornets are and as good as that one looks, in this VERY difficult market £10k absolute tops if you actually want to sell but, would be thinking £8k for a better chance of a sale.
