Hillman Super Minx – Exceptional Condition
The Hillman Super Minx was a family produced by the Rootes Group from 1961 to 1967. It was a slightly larger version of the Hillman Minx and the model was popular with the aspiring young professional family man looking for slightly more space and increased performance from his car.
Milestones are always looking for above average classic saloons and this late Series III Super Minx is a lovely car that ticked all the boxes for us. Finished in stunning Forest Green with contrasting green upholstery and matching carpets the Minx looks extremely sharp with a lovely paint finish, excellent chrome and an exceptional interior – Rootes Group cars from this period always present well.
We sold the Super Minx some years ago to a young enthusiast who has used the car regularly including road trips to France and around the UK.

The history folder includes MOT’s back to 1997, a variety of invoices, period brochures and the original hand-written Bill of Sale from Windsor Service Station (Bath) that confirms the Minx cost Mr Vowles, the proud new owner, the princely sum of £731.
Ready to use and enjoy this Super Minx will provide lots of pleasure and happy memories to the lucky new owner and we recommend early viewing to fully appreciate this exceptional classic.
