Under the Hood (10/10 Mechanics) 🔧
Original 850cc Engine: Fully rebuilt to standard specs with very low mileage since the rebuild.
Turn-Key Ready: Proven as a reliable daily driver. Starts right up and runs like a dream.
Fully Legal: Up-to-date registration and recently passed its annual technical inspection. Any mechanical test is welcome!
Handling & Stance 🛞
Upgraded with adjustable ride-height suspension.
Classic 10-inch rims wrapped in lightly used sports tires for that perfect go-kart handling.
Authentic Mk1 Aesthetics 🪟
True Mk1 Features: Boasts the highly desirable round rear glass and the iconic sliding windows that collectors love.
Fresh Chrome & Trims: Brand new mirrors, door handles, bumpers, and glass features.
Honest Bodywork: Kept safe in storage recently. The paint has a few minor aesthetic flaws that can easily be improved, but it is structurally solid and functionally perfect.
This Mini is a fantastic, reliable driver exactly as it sits, or an easy weekend project to bring the paint to show-quality.
