Highlights

Elegant and personalised classic mini
Carefully enhanced exterior and interior
Demands restarting and revised before driven

The Plus

One of the great pleasures of a classic Mini is the ability to personalise it as you wish. A host of specialists can provide upgrades and parts to transform your road kart to your heart's content.

This car benefits from just such an approach.
'Jet black' finished version, it features upgraded chrome exterior trim, including front and rear wing guards and guard bars, as well as a stylish set of Minilite-style alloy wheels. The interior has been updated with a number of stylish wooden features.

The car has recently been brought out of 2-years of storage and presents itself complete and generally sound. It is available to restore or, after some general checks, to drive and gradually improve.
