This may be the lowest mileage Classic Mini in the marketplace.It is pretty much a show car w a little clean up/detailing!It is very solid with only some surface rust underneath. It is 40 years young!Lovely gearbox, stops well. Really keeps up with all traffic w the biggest engine, the 1.3 liter (1275cc).It is ridiculously cute, especially w the nice original hounds tooth, psychedelic upholstery. It is very MOD.It goes around corners like a roller coaster!!!!Great investment as one of the lowest mileage Classic Mini's.I have a letter from the original owner in England verify the miles when she sold it.Vin could not be recognized by ebay software.it is:SAXXNYADBBD046313See the pictures.Beautiful car, low miles, serviced, drives great, new sparkplugs.It still has the original water shield for the distributor, and the cover for the battery in the trunk as well. Original hubcaps are in the trunk.One of the problems with these mechanical fuelpump cars, is you have to crank the starer alot to drive the fuel pump to fill the carb to get it to start. This wears out starters. The Mini still drives on the mechanical fuelpump, but I added a 12 volt electric fuelpump, to only come on when you put it in reverse. I used the reverse light wiring to turn on the pump. To start it from cold or after sitting for a few days-weeks-months, you turn on the key, put it in reverse (you can hear the fuel pump run) for ten seconds, take it out of reverse, and it fires up with the twitch of the key in start position!!!!! Sometimes you may have to use the choke knob as usual.. especially cooler weather. I solved the slow start problem without running wire and switches eveywhere! U will learn to really appreciate it. Show it to your Mini Cooper friends.This Gorgeous Robin's Egg Blue, or Cotsworth Blue, garnishes alot of looks, camera picture taking where ever you drive. Be prepared for alot of attention!!!!Bigger people fit in these little cars amazingly!!!!I also added a stereo w a USB Charger in it, and speakers.New tires w maybe 100 miles on them, a few years back.W very little detailing, this Mini is a Show Car!note: ebay software could not recognize the vin number as a 1993, so I had to put in a pre 1981 year. Otherwise this ad would not work.....Cash or Bankwire, or held check and car for final purchase. Check my feedback please!Richard Wright60 years of British cars!!!!
