Austin Mini 1. 3
I bought the car with 21, 384 miles on the clock and it now has 22, 425 (subject to increase). The car has a stage 1 kit on it and is pushing 70BHP. It easily hits 80/ 90 MPH. 4 H pattern manual gearbox. The car has never been driven in poor/ wet conditions in the time that I've owned it and always stored in a garage with a car cover on a trickle charger. (Never been wet washed either). Please read all of the work that has been carried out by myself and the previous 2 owners with photos and paperwork to show. Everything works as it should do, and runs incredibly well. No oil drips.

This total head turner was fully stripped in 1998 before the enormous amount of work you can see here was carried out. Completed in 2006 as a show car, the project included:

* custom centre box exhaust
* fully and professionally deseamed (but for the side gutters, thankfully!)
* Flush door handles
* Sunken rear lights
* De-bumpered (rear)
* Windows dechromed and flattened into body
* Boot handle removed and flattened (opened from a catch inside the car)
* Fuel cap removed and flattened (accessible from inside the boot)
* Pro paint job

The owner I bought it off of:
In the 6 years I have had Myrtle, she has been dry use only, garaged and under cover for all the time she isn't being driven. I have carried out all the usual work like gaskets and new tubings etc, as well as

The owner before the owner I bought it off of:
Head gasket
Upgraded valve stems
New radiator fan
Wheel bearings
Poly bush engine mounts
New gearbox at 18, 000 miles (due to a failing diff, so replaced the lot in 2014 with only 100 miles on the new box)
So as you can see she is a labour of love, always maintained and taken very good care of. There are some bits of bubbling in the usual places on the body (bottom front part of the driver's door and on the bonnet scuttle) but they have not worsened in the years I've owned her, and we have to remember she is 48 years old! The private number plate included in the sale is worth £600 TOV 31N (TOY BIN)
