hi guys i posted this in the ebay mini section but then later found out that no one could reply in the thread and was reccomended to post it in here as people could reply

so basically how much is this clubman van worth as the owner is asking 5000 but there has been no bids at all and is currently the most expensive mini on ebay

To me it looks like it's worth the money asked, but honestly, there's only realy one way to make sure it's value for money, but that's something I can't do from where I'm sitting.
You realy need to have a look at it yourself to be totally satisfied.

Looks ok from the photos and probably worth that much - it has discs, nice wheels and a few other pluses. Bit of a gamble buying a car of ebay though without seeing it in the flesh.
Be interesting to see what it would have been offered for if it had a round nose.

Hey Dobba,

Go have a look at it if you can. If it wasn't xmas i would say grab a cheap flight but don't know if that is possible at the moment. Also only 6 hours left so... if it doesn't sell maybe offer him cash and come look.

Maybe someone on here could go have a look for you?

My mini was very similar to that and I got it a little cheaper than that. It had more VISABLE rust and a bigger donk though. Good luck and remember that clubby vans are IT. I heard that they are "the new white" as well
EDIT I have some arches that might fit as well if you want but they are in melbourne and will need some love. I also have some carbon look ones you can have for a small amount.

thanks for the reply guys, i emailed the seller when it was still active and told him that if no one bidded the 5k i would email him after and talk about a price and i would probably stick a cheeky offer of 4k in and see what he says... watch this space

There was one this colour for sale on a trailer at TME Big Day Out. If it is the same one then someone on here would have had a closer look. I didn't so that I wouldn't come home with an extra mini!

ah right thanks for that... did anyone see it then ??

G'day Dobba, i've seen that van on ebay a couple of times its caught my eye as well, for some reason i haven't gone any further with it , could be the price or the location for me but yeah try bargaining with old mate and see how you go if your keen . I t looks like not a bad project but from what i can see in the photos check the rust factor in it .

Colin

No, it wasn't the same one.
The one at the GDO was an 850 windowless roundie, deseamed and not a bad looking base for a nice van.

It dose look like a good one. If possible go out and check it out in person then start talking price if that's an issue for you. For 5k it ain't too bad .
