Lot number: 198

Mini Mayfair 1000 1987 - Described as a "Bonny little car that makes you smile when you drive it!" When you drive a Mini, even a bad one which this one certainly isnt, you can understand just what the vendor means. Why the Mini is loved throughout the world and is probably the most recognised car ever built. Even BL in their darkest hours could not kill it, just "EU" impact laws finally killing it off! This nice "Mayfair" Edition has the 998cc motor and manual gearbox, giving crisp performance and the better more "Up-Market" interior complete with nicer seat trim and wooden dash. The vendor bought the car as a bit of a project for himself, running and good on the body but needing things like a new rear sub frame and as he says "A good overhaul". This has all now been done by him and there is a current MOT through to January next year. The mileage is showing as 57K but the car came with no history so no guarantee that as correct, but the condition of things like the interior trim, which is all good, would suggest this could be correct. The engine and gearbox are both very good and again could point to the low miles showing. Exterior is very good and helping with this are a nice set of period alloy wheels that have been fitted instead of the standard wheels the Mayfair came with. Paintwork is shiny and all the bright work is good. Mechanically and electrics are now good, with any problems recently being addressed for its MOT. This is a good example of a sought after car that is ready to go and make a new owner smile.
