Time has come to pass on my mini to a new owner. I have owned the car for 15 years now (was my first car) so it have been through numerous rebuilds and full respray. I recently moved to Ireland where I no longer have a garage so the car is sitting in the UK hence the decision to pass it onto a new caring owner.
Summary:
Shell
Rear subframe
Interior
I don't really know what it's worth but it has had thousands spent on it and for a c.2k respray I think it would be worth c.10k therefore asking for £8k.
Happy to discuss for interested parties and I have many many pictures which I can whatsapp you if you Dm me

Summary:
- Solid shell with no rust and steel flip front - but needs a respray due to the recent conversion works
- 1.8vvc engine conversion with MGF subframe, suspension and brakes
- New gunmetal 13inch minispeed wheels to fit over MGF brakes
- Carbon wrapped dashboard with black and white pin tripped interior.
- White bolt in roll cage
- V5C updated to 1.8 with correct engine number
- Following a full respray, and getting it on the road after 2 years of hard work... back in 2010 a kind gentleman in a ford fiesta decided to rear-end me and the car was written off as cat C (too expensive to repair). The damage was minimal and fully repaired (bent bootlid, damage to left light cluster and surrounding metalwork). I have many, many pictures. So the car is a Cat C
