The Appeal
No matter how much time passes, the original Mini continues to offer an unrivalled experience, combining compact dimensions with surprising practicality and the legendary "go-kart" handling that has delighted drivers for decades.
This 1987 example has been transformed from a usable classic into a head-turning custom build through a passionate two-year project. What makes this Mini special is the balance of classic charm with thoughtful modern upgrades, creating a vehicle that delivers an enhanced driving experience while maintaining its quintessential Mini character.
This example stands out with its custom paintwork - a deep Candy Red over black metallic base with glitter, finished with 'Murdered Out' Candy Black details and three layers of clear coat. The comprehensive mechanical upgrades include a Hi-Lo suspension system with GAZ shock absorbers, KAD performance brakes, and a thoroughly serviced 1275cc A-Series engine. The entire underside has been professionally treated with Raptor coating for preservation, while the interior has been completely refreshed.
This is a Mini built to be driven and enjoyed, combining visual impact with genuine performance improvements.
