Heres my mini, might need to sell it so wondering about how much I'll get for it.

1971 1275GT
Years MOT and Tax (tax emempt)
Loads of new parts: Tyres, rubbers, brake master cylinder, carpets, mirrors, service parts, digital dash, full exhaust system.
Rebuilt/refurbed parts: Wheels, brake servo, wiper motor, webber carb.

Engine is a mildly tuned 1293 lump, don't really know much about it tho but car had a small feature which has more info.

Heres some pics, will come with bullet mirrors and W&P arches.







What kind of money am I looking at?

Cheers
John

well I'm not good at valuing clubmans but i think you need a bump and someone to start off the bidding so...

i wouldn't want to pay more than £2000 for it but then its not really my kind of mini.

others may disagree but lets hope that started the conversation going

ooh, just noticed its tax exempt o that may help bump the price a bit

I'd say anything between £1500-2000. I think the modifications are to quite a specific taste, and so they might put some people off (£1500), but then you might find someone who absolutely loves it (£2000).

your front wheel looks like it has positive camber...

I was going to say that too.

I would say no more than £1500 tops, given its styling and the fact its missing most of what makes it a GT.

[Lt-SilverDragon]

Yeah was used on hillclimbs so they raised the front and I've not lowered it yet so thats why they look like they've got positive camber.

Well looks like I won't be selling it yet then, was wanting around the £2400 region but if I'm not gonna get close then I won't sell, some people don't like the colour but the rest of the mods are normal mods that most people tend to do anyway. So I'll get pretty much the same if I rip out all the good stuff and sell it, have seen moted and taxed minis for sale between 1200-1500 (don't know if they ever sold tho) that were tatty as anything.

Just passed it's MOT so now has a year and ten days, no advisory note.

congrats on the MOT !!

if you replace the digital dash back to a standard 3 clock GT set up and respray either 1/2 of the car to make it all one colour then you might get £2000+
you can then advertise it at £2500ono and see if anyone will offer close to it.

at the end of the day you can advertise it as it stands for whatever price you want.
you only need 1 buyer who is prepared to pay that price.
