Description
1984 Mini Mayfair, 998cc manual.
This is a solid, usable classic Mini that's been restored and improved over time not a concours/show car, but a genuinely honest example you can enjoy straight away.
The car has had important structural work done, including new rear subframe and repaired sills, and is in good overall condition with no major rust issues. It's clearly been cared for and is a strong base compared to many Minis at this price point.
Mechanically, it runs well on the original 998cc engine and is a great little driver simple, lightweight, and exactly what a classic Mini should feel like. Still on drum brakes, keeping it true to its original spec.
Inside, it's had a refresh with new seat covers, carpets, and door cards, while retaining the original headliner, giving a nice mix of clean feel and originality.
The car has been resprayed, although the bonnet and boot have some cracking in the paint, so could do with attention if you're looking to take it to the next level cosmetically. The rest presents well for a usable classic.
Overall, this is a straight, honest Mini that's already had key work done ideal as a weekend car, entry classic, or something to continue improving.
