Anyone on here got a mini pickup ?
I've always likes/wanted one but never had the chance.
I'd like to see some pics if there are any

They are unusual to come across here as they were never officially imported or assembled here.

This one looks like a cut down van (it has the van taillights)

The rear should look like this:

Am I right in thinking the original one is the same length as a van? Are there any cut out of a normal mini going around? I think that might actually be my dream car

Yes, the pickup ones are based on the long wheel base of the estate/van

Here is a photoshop of a converted saloon to pickup... the load space would be pretty limited if you did make one

I was going to ask this elsewhere but some excellent pics have come up. So, still trying to understand different minis but, from above pics from Timmy 201, both his show a more angular shaped grill, whereas Flapper & Babes have what I'd term the traditional. What is the difference?
