Reported to be highly original with nothing modified during current ownership
Has participated in notable Mini events, including the London to Brighton Mini Run
In current ownership since June 2020
The Appeal
You can't beat an original Mini. Go-kart-like handling, a peppy A Series engine driving the front wheels, and considerably more room inside than one would expect for such a small car, the Issigonis' masterpiece continues to attract a loyal fanbase.
Our 1975 Austin Mini 850 has been actively enjoyed on the classic car scene, taking part in the London to Brighton Mini Run and the London Bridges Tour, among other events. The vendor states that it drives very well and that everything is in working order. A slight paint peel on the rear driver's side is noted, but otherwise it presents as an honest, usable Mini, ready for rallies, tours, or simply pottering about town.image.png1.49 MB
