There's a classified in yesterdays paper for a mini , this is it in it's entirety ,

MINI-COOPER, rebuilt, history record, 12 months rego, QNN***, exc cond, poa
6653****

Is it just me or does that ad seem to be lacking a lot , I'd like to see a date at least and an engine size , just some details to see that it could be a cooper or S rather than another person who thinks every mini is a cooper .

If anyone wants the number to look into it PM me and I'll forward it on and I can have a look at it if required .

_________________

i wouldnt say its lacking alot.. but it does lack some important stuff id still call out of curiosity

oil leak?..what oil leak..that puddle under the car is just sweat from all that horsepower

Well for starters is it Morris , Rover or BMW .... Any of them could be "rebuilt" , the first BMW Mini cooper's would be 6 or so years old now and could have been rebuilt .

If you wanted a Mini, you'd call them.
Thats why they left their telephone number

As willy said, it may be the real deal with an owner reluctant to sell or who only wants to sell to he right person like me!

Your silliness has been noted.

i voted that it DOESNT help to sell the ad.
however i dont see a problem with that.. because you could be on the potential of a gold mine of a car here..........and yet no one knows about it

no harm with just a phonecall to get some details

Got your attention enough you had to ask us.

Did you call and find out any additional info and told us about it

Stop Licking the Dog...I Don't Care Who Started It

Curiosity got the better of me so I rang in the end .... $6,990 ,spent $15K on it , new stainless steel floor (???) , 1250 motor ("NO , IT'S NOT 1275 , I said 1250 "....), new drum brakes , previous owner put a right hand tank in , claims it's a cooper because it says so on the boot but wouldn't give the car type number from the ID plate ....

doesnt sound like he wants to make the sale if they want to be rude about it

If it was a genuine cooper, you would expect to pay more than that. Thats my reason for assuming it is a rebadged deluxe.


The ad company probably charges per word for the ad....

Everybody should know by now that a mini is just a mini until you can prove it is a cooper.

Any monkey could tell the difference between a Deluxe and a Cooper from 100m away.

Yes, but some monkeys will swear black and blue that:



...even when you can show them the facts
