I got my Mini just over a month ago now paying 1800 for it.
A month before selling it the previous owner had it re-sprayed, but, looking closely it wasn't an expensive one, so in time I'll be getting a much better spray job, for now, it's smart enough.
Also just before selling it he gave it a new set of mini lites and tyres plus a full stainless exhaust, he wasn't planning on getting rid of it but needed the money for other things more important.
After looking at quite a few Minis for around £1500 - £2000 and the amount of work they needed, I'm pretty sure I've got quite a nice one for my money.
Anyway, I've got a lot of plans for it and already I've been really busy spending the money I had left towards one.
I started off by taking the rear seats out and lining it using the same fabric.

The alloy legs of the centre consol is made from a set of 20" push bike forks, needs finishing off.
The engine is a standard 998 at the moment, I will be looking for a 1275 soon enough.
