Where can I buy an old Austin Mini?

Question

I have tried Ebay, Auto Trader, Ad Mag etc. and can't find anything. I just want something cheap around £200 max to rip everything out and restore - any ideas?

thanks

Answer 1

For 200 max any mini you get will be a heap and not worth spending money on.  There will almost certainly be near terminal rust on box sections that you cannot easily see and repairing it will require trade skills not would be DIY ones!

Answer 2

Answer 5

For that price it has to be a scrappy. Just tell your local ones and they will let you know next time they get one.

Answer 6

those cars were terribly unrelaiable and over priced.

its going to be tough finding one someone has kept in good shape.
