The Appeal

Introduced in 1992 for the French market, the elegant Woodbury Mini conjures up much more terraced bistro than many of the often weird-and-wonderful editions BMC so swore upon in the 90s, and is one of the most desirable of them as a result. A black, pin-striped livery, elegant brown 'Arc de Triomphe' upholstery and a walnut dash - all wrapped around the trusty A-Series in its 1275cc guise.

This Woodbury Mini has been in the care of its current owner since June 2011. During that time, the bodywork was repainted in 2019, and the chrome parts replaced. Regular maintenance has been carried out throughout the current ownership, and a new battery has recently been fitted.
