Don't miss the opportunity to own this beautifully restored piece of automotive history, a testament to the enduring legacy of the Mini.Originally registered as an Austin Mini 1100 special on 03/01/1979 this model was assembled by British Layland UK LTD in Sneff Belgium as a 20th Anniversary special model. It then went on to spend its first 16 years in Belgium and was imported into Spain on 05/01/95. Its first major restoration took place around 1996 to 2000, and this would have been the time it was made to look like a Mini Cooper, however the restoration was never 100% completed and the Mini was stored in a dry garage. On 22/07/2015 a classic Mini specialist purchased the Mini intending to complete the restoration however it was just stored again and on 14/11/2016 it was purchased by my uncle, who lives in Spain. He restored the mini (a diary will be provided), and it was a 'labour of love' which was fully completed on 26/02/2018. I bought the car in Sept 2019 and imported it to the UK.
