hey dudes and dudettes
this mini has been in the Oldtimer centre in Sydney
for about 2 years. it disappeared for about 5 months and reappeared on sale again

Oldtimer gets alot of people (wealthy too) and im just wondering why this mini (apparently cooper) hasnt been sold

things i have noticed are that the block isnt australian, it s horrid colour, the underneath is also grubby, the idiot has jacked it up under the body, the RH tank is a mystery, the colours in some panels look resprayed with bad colour match, overriders on a late mini (?), leyland steering wheel, brake boosters on a cooper (?)

the place is 5 minutes from my uni,
ive seen the mini up close, and i was rather impressed. looks better than the photos

yeah looking for a new animated gif.... trying to find a good one... back to the old Death Star for now

Dunno what to think of that one........... have ssen it on drive.com and carpoint and has been on there since i was looking for a mini..........

Must be something wrong if it is still there. I guess the thing to look at which is what greg says to me is look at the starting price. then u have to restore it to the point that you are happy with for me that would end up a $30,000 cooper without even thinking, mainly because i am soooo picky.......

I'd say there is something sus about the engine or the claimed milage.
34 years old, used by police everyday for a couple a years, and still only 49,000?
Something isn't right. Also, It would be easier to sell if it was white how it should be.

Exactly what i was thinking harley.................. things just don't add up for my liking

Same Brake Booster, Brake and Cluth Master Cylinders and same alternator
