Hi All...got the opportunity to purchase a rare (in oz) mini and I was trying to find out as much as I can of the ROUGH value of the car as the friend owner and I cant quite come to an agreement.

VGC body and nice inside, full front and rear seats in tartan style fabric, all standard with no mods
Automatic transmission

Thanks

So it's a fully complete car, turn the key and it drives fine?
Does it have import papers and compliance plates?
What size is the engine?
Could be between 5k to 20k, we need more details and pics if possible.

clubman estates are rare, but not all that desirable - one of those cars that is worth good money to only a small number of people

This may be true... but worth every $$$. Its a specialist item - but don't make too much noise or everyone will want one...

Who could resist a mini that can carry 4 people with barbie and picnic basket.. or a couple of bales of lucerne, maybe a 100 kg of chook food or a dishwasher to the local repair shop. And be competitive in a local hillclimb ( once you remove the chook food).

As to the original question - it doesn't make much sense. How much does he want - how much do you want it?

I believe someone recently wanted one enough to swap a relatively new JCW S for it. My Traveller cost an ancient Toyota Corona paddock basher.... I think that pretty much sets the bounds.

Cheers, Ian
