Looking for possible mini's
by Harry H Sun Jan 03, 2010 8:03 pm
Hi everyone,
As the cooper has now sold I have money that is asking to become a mini again so I have spent days looking at mini's on the internet but haven't seen anything I really like until tonight
I need a mini that can be used everyday so can't be concourse good but not a rust bucket, and something that I can put my own stamp on.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200424271427&_trksid=p2759.l1259 I like it but wanted to check what other people might think
and if its worth it.
Its in Cambridge so not far away and looks like I won't have much if any rust to deal with!

looks very tidy and I'd say a good price.
My only comment is it will need a FULL respray is its that common RED colour

Thanks for the link Craig, looks nice and the price does too
I might try and have a look at the red one on Tuesday and see what its like, have a little drive and check it over properly.
HCL came back the other day from Tim's house and is sitting in the barn now waiting for its future to be decided, I think I will probably sell it as I don't have the knowledge or the money to do it myself
It's a shame but that's the way it has to be.
So by Tuesday night I will hopefully know if this one is a good'un or not
