Mini Cooper S MK3. ( A REAL BARN FIND) for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 87 votes
Hi and welcome to the sale of my MKIII Austin Mini Cooper S. This is a true barn find not one of these been sat in a garage for 3 months and has a covering of dust.

This Mini came with 3 others that I was lucky enough to buy earlier this year. The others are currently being kept.

It's been with the last owner since 2007 and was used sparingly until 2015 when it was tucked away in his barn with the other Minis & classic cars. where it had sat until I pulled it out on collecting them.

Since they have arrived I have been in long discussions with the Mini Cooper Register about all of them and they all turn out to be special in there own ways. This one was built and registered by A M Cater. It was reputedly used as a road rally car during the 1970's possibly by A M Cater but I don't who for certain.

Today the Mini presents itself in Almond green with a white roof and a very nice interior, very smart upgraded dash. Ive done nothing with them, not even washed them off as it feels like part of the story. Its retains its 5jx10 Minilites, Twin tanks, Correct spec engine/Head with Twin Su's, I suspect a well upgraded engine with what it was used for. It ran perfectly when was parked up (I'm told).

The Mini presents itself very well and the FLOORS are Immaculate! This is in great usable condition as is and could be made to be beautiful with a paint refresh.

the value of these are of course only going one way and the MK3 S is 100% the best made. These are at my house and can be viewed on request. These opportunities don't come along very often and I certainly wont be lucky enough to find 4 in one go ever again. So if you are looking for a very special Mini that is of course appreciating this is a great place to start. These are changing hands for even rotten ones in excess of £25k and I know of a few recently at around £40k
