Description
1972 Austin Mini 1275 GT in factory Blaze Orange. This outstanding 1275 GT is a 'two owner' car which might be the only example like this remaining! It needs to be seen to be appreciated as the condition is outstanding. It was subject to a full restoration 12 years ago and has covered around 500 miles since completion. The restoration was carried out by Somerford Minis, Rightline Motorsport and Peter Vickers. The entire project was carried out by professionals with no work done by the owner at a total cost of £17600. 00. I have every bill and receipt for all of the work as well as history file with 17 past MOTs and photographs of the car. It was featured in Mini Magazine in 2005 with a 4 page write up and was driven by Bill Sollis who loved the way the mini drove. Due to the full engine and gearbox rebuild it drives very well and its original engine is now 1293 cc and was put on Gerald Dale Motorsport rolling road producing 62 BHP. It has 7. 5 inch front disc brakes with a servo and has the best brakes I have ever experienced in a mini. Driving this 1275 GT is like driving a very well engineered Cooper S and better than most Cooper S's I have driven. The factory Wabesto roof also adds a lot of fun and 70's feel to the car. Finding another 1275 GT of this quality would be very difficult and finding another 'two owner' example in this condition and originality could take a life time if there is another in existence. A very rare and unique opportunity to own one of the very best remaining examples of an iconic mini which should make a very enjoyable future investment.
