Searching through some mini sites and it amazes me at how much some people will charge for a mini. Take this one on carsales,

http://www.carsales.com.au/pls/carsales ... istance=25

Sure its a nice mini, but probably double the price it is worth. And before SA people realise who is selling it, I just thought it was humorous, as if it was a cooper or cooper S, it would be worth considering, but still may be too high. What do you guys think!

P.S Free bag of cow manure to the first person too recognise the number in the add and realise who is selling it!

agreed it sounds a lot, but what else could you buy that is better for that money than a mini??? that money wouldnt buy a new hyundai, and that mini is way better than a hyundai.
everything is worth exactly what someone is prepared to pay for it (at leats it is to the buyer)

It's a very clean tidy car and would be a jem to own. I'm sure 90% of cars on carsales are priced high by owners delibrately, ya just never know who might see the add! I'm sure it will sell, but will be at an offer by the buyer, not $14k!
