1972 Austin Mini 1275 GT - meticulously restored, thousands spent and superb to drive.

Recently on the front cover of Mini World August 2022, this Mini Clubman 1275 GT is in fantastic condition throughout the inside, outside and underside of the vehicle. A lot of time, money and love has gone into this Mini over the 50 years of it being on the road. There’s plenty of paperwork that comes with this immaculate car, totalling a cost of over £19, 500 not forgetting the price of the car itself.

If you’re looking for a car that has maximum go-kart feel, there really is no other car like it than the Mini. It’s known for being a fun car to drive thanks to its short chassis which gives a darty feedback to the steering and it’s lightweight, too. So, it’ll make you feel like you’re driving a go-kart on the road. This particular Mini has Gaz shocks all round making the handling at the corners feel even better. It’s exceptionally good to drive and is perfect for all ages, whether you’re new to the roads and you’re looking for a unique car to explore the roads in or if you’re after an old classic and want something that has been well kept and maintained over the years, this is perfect full stop.

On the outside, the Mini is finished in a beautiful turquoise, teal paintwork which has a lovely finish to it. There’s black stripes and ‘Mini 1275 GT’ decals down the side which finish it off nicely. There’s also chrome door mirrors, window trims, bumpers, door handles and wiper arms. And this Mini has 10-inch wheels that suit the car perfectly.

The interior is beautiful and finished off to a high standard. The Mini also features a thin three-spoke steering and a small gear knob which moulds into your hand perfectly. Even though the Mini is a small car, this feels spacious up front. The boot is in impeccable condition, and it comes with a boot floor and a spare wheel as well.

Underneath is clean and shiny, and you can tell this car has been well maintained throughout its life. This really is a fine example we have here at Fairmont Sports and Classics. We can guarantee it’ll be great fun and enjoyable for all journeys, especially if you’re looking at doing Mini runs, events and festivals that run throughout the year, both in the UK and abroad. Minis are fantastic fun and are a true historic classic.
