bigal Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) Year:1990Model:miniTax:sept 14MOT:5/14Mileage:79****Description:1990 Mini Mayfair 998(still reg'd as 998cc) 1275cc Metro with 1 3/4 Hif44 carb heated manifold Hi-Lift 1:5 Rockers Fitted new uprated radiator and again new uprated alternator both fitted in last 2 month silicone hoses to carb and rad ( Engine Swap was done March 2013 After 998cc was past repair fitted from Metro similar mileage 3kmiles max) 79 k body think the engine is 3k less 76kService oil filters nov 13 Basic sony stereo with speakers in parcel shelf cobra style wrap around buckets with matching rear black vinyl seats 3 clock walnust dash centre consal but not finished optimise automotive red and black door cards opening rear windows new seat belts in last 6months so very clean . all electrics work except the rear windown power is there but there is too many breaks in the heated rows . Centre exit exhaust not ridic loud but got nice sound New battery as well , its been in less than a year. new fuel tank fitted minilight 13-7 with nearly new yoko tyres 175/50/13 and dished sports steering wheelBe honest with the bad pointsHeadlining - the glue towards the back left has lost its stickiness so i have pinned it in the channel. Paint Bubble between rear body Weld and rear passenger window Scratch on wing next to bonnet and another on passenger door Little rust on boot near hinge Maybe 5p sizePassenger door doesn't shut without a little force as the hinge has dropped so doesn't line up perfect - all locks are perfectScuttle - slight cracking drivers sideStarts first time every time little choke on cold days but with the 1275 unlike the 998 it doesnt take long at all the heat up.Very nippy if you over bore or get a larger valved cylinder head it would fly i had planned this but never got round to it.Very little rust flew through mot this is by no means a project car as i use it as my daly and runs very sweet day in day out the milage will go up as i use it to get me from work and back witch is nearly 30 mile a day its just had new dizzy cap plugs leads fuel filter and fuel line and tomoro its gonna have new drive shaft oil seal and 2 new track rod ends and tracking done aswell Price:£3000 or swap for ep82 or ek civicPictures: Contact Details:pm or reply here Edited March 28, 2014 by bigal

shorty Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Get it in mini world and mini mag dude, plus practical classics and on the mini owners clubs too. Is a steal for the condition at that price imo. I had a heavily modded 1330cc mini racing green, a 1275 clubman gt and a rover cooper mpi sports pack, non looked as fresh as yours tbf. It will sell easy from them. Edited March 4, 2014 by shorty
