Listed for a friend who buys like I buy hot dinners. he needs to slim down the fleet and this fantastic mini doesn't get used so it's one that needs to go. Please call Karl on 07976 567 626. Words below from Karl;

Finally selling my classic mini. had her for a couple of years in which time i have literally spent thousands on her to get her the way i wanted.

She has had a full rebuild from the bottom up about 4 years ago which included new floor front/rear panels etc. obviously being bike engine powered she has had a lot of changes to accommodate the engine in the rear. Since then it had a full bare metal paint restoration. new seats and carpets. wiring redone as it wasn't great and a replacement engine as the original lost compression.

She's powered by a 1000cc Honda CBR Hurricane non injection (carb) engine which being carbed sounds glorious.


The now engine compartment has sound deadened the rear engine cover and some sound deadening around the floor.

Really can't think of anything at the moment but she has a few extras such as;


- Ford LSD
- Electric reverse
- superlites with yokohama tyres
- gauges from a CBR
- separate water temp gauge
- flared arches
- 6 speed sequential box (1 up 5 down)
- AP brakes up front

- Ford disks and calipers at the rear
- AVO adjustable rear coilovers. mini hi/lo front

 

It's being sold as work in progress although it's 99% ready for an MOT. no real reason it's not other than being busy all the time. Couple of points to note are that it doesn't have a fuel gauge nor does it have a speedo. Both could be retro-fitted quite quickly and easily if desired. The number plate is quite good ‘TDC' Top Dead Centre :) It doesn't have TAX either. it may be possible to MOT and TAX it but first you should come and view it.

 

It's for sale with no reserve so happy bidding. It is for sale elsewhere so may be withdrawn without notice. Viewing highly recommended. car is in Bury Manchester.

Usual rules apply of course; only bid if you are serious about owning this car. contact within 2hrs of winning the auction and deposit via paypal within 24hrs of contact. Delivery at £1 a mile is also possible should you need it.
