Re: breakdown truck
I thought the 10k estimate was low... id seen the mini before, though i saw people who have paid a fortune for some singers shoes... a fool and his money are soon parted...
Re: breakdown truck
Had that been a 997cc Cooper or a 1071 Cooper S, then maybe, just maybe, it would have been worth that much. But a later, "wet" (Hydrolastic rather than dry rubber) 1275 S? For that, I'd want the thing to be drivable. Someone must have been desperate for a log book donor for a Heritage shell rebuild. Possibly.

A Cummins engine, a Berliet cab, Eaton transmission and built at Foden, when a motoring journalist, who thought that he was being clever, asked Sir Terence Beckett, "Apart from the blue oval on the grille, what exactly does Ford make?"
Without drawing breath Beckett replied: "The Profit."

Re: breakdown truck
Yes, if all that's required is a mini. However, as it's an incredibly nicely presented S - albeit not the earlier 1071 or the super rare 970 - I suspect that the car will come close to that asking price and someone will drive it home with that grin on their face, the grin that even putting a MK1 Escort through its paces on gravel cannot quite match.Dick wrote: ↑Sat May 01, 2021 8:43 pmOverpriced mini ?

So what to buy if a mini, year and exact model not being considerations, is all it has to be? For my mini money - assuming that my now much skinnier frame would allow me to drive one given suitable means of reaching that close to the ground - it has to be this: https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1322086 And yes, the red interior may be a little too bright with the blue paint, IMHO, but is a 1275 S really worth so much more? I'm not seeing it somehow.
