Beautifully presented inside, out and under the bonnet

The Appeal
It’s hard to overstate the importance of the Mini. When these little cars began rolling off the production line in 1959, little did people know that the Mini would remain in production, fundamentally unchanged, until the end of the century.
We’re pleased to offer this delightful Morris Mini Mk2, dating from 1969. Presented in impeccable restored condition, this is amongst the smartest Minis of this vintage you’re likely to find and we’re assured that it is also in fine mechanical order. Complete with a number of invoices amassed during its 2017 rebuild and subsequent refresh in 2023, this lovely example is ready to enjoy.
