I'm generally not a fan of the bodykits but I can appreciate a nice looking car.

At 3.5k buy it now something must be horribly wrong with it?

All I can fault with it from what is stated is the disc's may need an engineer's certificate to be registerred/transferred , it does seem too cheap for a running 1275 in a clean and shiny body with good interior , let alone with a body kit , custom paint and custom interior .....
WOnder if there's a story behind it , anybody know the car or the seller ? Is it the owners ex selling it or something like that ????? If it's all above board then it looks to be a good car for a great price .

Just been having a closer look at the pics , can anybody else see any external door hinges ? The door's the right shape and has 1/4 vent windows to be an Aussie mini (maybe 72 mini K rather than 73 unless it's had the clubby front removed and a roundy front put on ) but I can't see the hinges . Where's 666 , it might be the perfect mini for him and what he saves on building his own can be spent on whatever's wrong with this one . Just make sure you do a revs check on it first ......

Ive seen internal hinges on aussie cars before...they not necessarily pretty but do the job. I think monster mini had some on his green car.

Yeah it's been deseamed and deguttered.. as in the gutters around the roof have been removed.. It still has an engine.

ahh guttered, i read it as Gutted... my bad

Post subject: 

No , their bad , they wrote it as degutted I think from memory ..... Be a lot cheaper than building your own up to that level , a respray over a nice and straight body is a pretty easy thing really .....
