THIS IS THE LAST TIME THIS CAR WILL FEATURE ON EBAY. NO MORE MESSERS PLEASE. THE LAST LISTING HAS OVER 250 WATCHERS. SO DONT HESITATE WITH YOUR OFFERS! THIS IS AFTER ALL. BRITAINS BEST LOVED CAR!

 

WELCOME TO MY AUCTION FOR THIS VERY SPECIAL LITTLE MINI - PRESENTED IN A1 CONDITION. SHOW STANDARDS!

THE CAR WAS SUPPLIED NEW IN BRISTOL AND HAS HAD JUST TWO OWNERS - THE PREVIOUS BEING A LADY AND BEFORE THAT IT WAS REGISTERED TO 'THE SISTERS OF ST ANGELAS CONVENT. CLIFTON DOWNS. BRISTOL'. IT HAS NEVER LEFT BRISTOL AS FAR AS I CAN TELL.

THE CAR IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION THROUGHOUT AND I WELCOME ANY INSPECTION.

I AM YET TO FIND A SCAB OF RUST. A MM OF FADED PAINT. OR A PANEL THAT DOESN'T LINE UP! AND ITS AS GOOD UNDERNEATH AS IT IS ON TOP WITH GREAT CILLS. FLOOR PLANS AND SUB FRAMES. EVEN THE BATTERY BOX IS SOLID!

DOOR SHUTS AND INSIDE THE BOOT IS IMMACULATE.

I COULD HARP ON ALL DAY BUT YOU GET THE POINT! I REALLY FEEL YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND ANOTHER LIKE THIS

MECHIANICALLY THE CAR IS GREAT - ALWAYS STARTS FIRST TIME - ALBEIT WITH A BIT OF CHOKE WHEN COLD. IT DRIVES AND STOPS PERFECTLY. THE CLUTCH IS GREAT AND ALL GEAR CHANGES ARE SMOOTH AND EASY.

32K MILES!

 

IT IS A 27 YEAR OLD CAR AND AS SUCH THERE ARE ONE OR TWO BAD POINTS:

HORN DOESN'T WORK

TEMP GUAGE DOESN'T WORK - ALL OTHER GUAGES DO (ALL 2 OF THEM!)

INSERTS NEED FITTING INTO THE RUBBERS AROUND FRONT AND BACK SCREEN - SUPPLIED. WILL DO THIS IF I CAN FIND TIME

NOT MUCH FUEL IN IT

ITS TAKING UP ROOM IN MY GARAGE

ITS CHRISTMAS AND I NEED SOME MONEY.

 

SO NO MAJOR BAD POINTS AT ALL :) TYRES ARE GREAT. TAXED UNTIL THE END OF THE DEC 2013. MOT UNTIL JULY 2014.

 

A SOLID INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY - KEPT NICE. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY GOING TO GO ONE WAY IN VALUE!!  

 

Disclaimer - all of the above is my opinion only.  I welcome any inspection and I'm very confident. I require cash or bank transfer within a week of deal being made. However. with the time of year. I am happy for the car to be left in the locked garage at home until the new year. As long as you've taken it by February. Please feel free to ask any questions. Serious bidders only please. CAR IS ADVERTISED ELSEWHERE - I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY IF SOLD.

 

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR OFFERS. AND MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

 

 

The photos do not do the car justice. I will add more photos in the next day or so. That said. it must be seen to be appreciated.
