For those who may have missed this vehicle is on Ebay at present

http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11051.m4 ... AAU%3A1123

In the words of the owner "Thank you for your feedback, actually this a Mk-III car which is a much better (later model) vehicle then a Mk-II. I understand about your concern and I thank you for letting me know."

The car is nothing more than a 1976 Leyland Mini S which has been made up to resemble a Cooper S.

Beware

He has 2 different listings and they vary slightly.
Oh and the picture of the same car on his website is different to the eBay ones.

Met him at the all British day last year but i think he only had 2 cars with him.

I jest, but given the photographs used, ex works Minis have started with less than this to create something for a fool and his money to be parted.
