Description
Selling my Classic 1000cc 1987 Austin Mini. new MOT and new steering rack 27/11/24. This very striking mini was sold to the first owner by Gates of Brockenhurst. The overall condition is stunning. The underside is solid and body looks great. It has covered just over 20k miles from new, and drivers really well. It has been wax oiled so to keep the condition nice for years to come. It was living in Wickford Essex in 2004, then moved to Seascale Cumbria in 2005. Next owner near Carlisle, did some body work, fitting new Wings, door skins were replaced. Moved to the northeast. New wheels, new front discs, pads, new rear subframe and brake pipes etc added adjustable suspension, new shockers, upgraded headlights, exhaust and stage 1 system fitted, Engine overhauled, deglazed pistons and rings fitted. Lot of updates done and refreshed work carried our e.g. water pump. Thermostat etc. I have tried to keep it as original as possible with the following done / fitted. Vintage wooden steering wheel, high quality boot liner kit, fitted correct needle to support stage one system, new starter motor, vintage spot light, 12V power USB, new front screen, ball joint, drive shaft boot, plus loads of other maintenance work done + serviced. It's been looked and dry stored, It has its original radio and I kept the original steering wheel in case it's needed. The 20K mileage is original from new and as you can see from DVLA MOT site, it's done very little miles per year. Due to low miles I totally flushed the coolant system to de gunk any issues. It has been tuned and now runs like a dream. Great fun to drive and it gets a lot of attention when it's out on the road or parked up. MOT done on the 28/10/24 and a new steering rack fitted.
