This sale is for: 1967 Morris 850 Mini. The car has approximately 76,443 kilometers (47,499 miles) on it. It was repainted at some point in its past. It has the original interior. The Mini came with the hydrolastic suspension, also known as wet suspension, and still retains it to this day. I believe I am the 3rd owner. OTHER INFORMATION: The car has been sitting for about 2 years. I have too many cars and too little time, so have decided it is time to let this car go. I put a new Optima battery in it along with fresh fuel. It started right up and ran well.
The body is in good condition with only a couple of what appear to be minor rust repairs in both of the rear portion of the rocker panels, just in front of the rear wheelwell arches. There is a small rust spot showing in the left front rocker panel. (See the pictures for more info) The floorboards feel solid and there are no repairs I have seen. The bottom of the battery box has some corrosion so I have put an extra plate in just to keep it solid. There is a minor dent/dimple on the right side door.
I added a Pertronix Ignition Module. I also change the oil filter system to a spin on oil filter.
The interior is in decent condition, although the carpet/mats are showing age. Each of the front seats have a tear in the bottoms of approximately 1” in length, but are otherwise in good shape.
It runs the original engine and complete driveline, as far as I can tell. The car needs to be serviced, ie: LOF, fluids checked and added as needed, brakes inspected and adjusted, tires inspected, etc. The car deserves to be detailed. Washed, waxed, buffed, chrome polished, and interior cleaned and upholstery treated. The car was used, but not abused. THE FINE PRINT and THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW: I am sure I have left some details out, so check out the pictures, reread what I have written, e-mail me with your questions AND then bid. The car is being sold as is, where is. There is no warranty stated, written, or implied. This is a 47 year old vehicle. As any car of this vintage it may need a few things done. I would encourage you to inspect the car first. I have given any info as to the needs of the car, as I know them, in the most honest manner. I like the car and may have inadvertently overlooked some of it’s clunks, rattles, and little quirks. You will be satisfied with my honest description. e-mail me with questions. I will gladly call serious buyers if you send your phone and best time to call, but I am not available Sunday mornings. A nonrefundable deposit of $500.00 must be made within 48 hours of the end of auction. It may be made either by PayPal or U.S.P.S. Postal Money Order (any other type of funds will be considered nonpayment). BALANCE is due within 10 days of the end of the auction or (which ever occurs first) prior to picking the car up, shipping the car, or receiving delivery of the car from the seller. BALANCE must be by wire transfer, cash or other funds that are verifiable and guaranteed at the time of exchange. I will work the details out with the purchaser. NEITHER THE CAR NOR THE TITLE WILL BE GIVEN OUT UNTIL THE FUNDS ARE FULLY EXCHANGED, VERIFIED, AND USABLE IN MY ACCOUNT. The car is sold as is, where is, however, I will work with you and/or your shipper on being available. Buyer pays all shipping and insurance costs. The winning bidder is responsible for any and all title, plates, taxes, transfers, inspections, insurance, and any other charges related to the purchase of the car. As always, I retain the right to end the auction for any reason, including if sold through another venue.
Thank you for looking and have a great day |

Mini JCW GP to be hatchback only, no 'Ring record attempt in sight
Wed, 14 Nov 2012The 2013 Mini John Cooper Works GP is dropping weight and lowering its lap times, but one thing it won't be losing is its flat roof. Like the original JCW GP package, Evo says that despite the fact that sportier Mini Coupes have been caught testing, the new GP will only be offered in the three-door Cooper hatchback body style. And that's perfectly fine with us.
Evo spoke with GP development chief Jorg Weidinger who said that as a part of the car's history, "It was a hatch, it is a hatch and it should stay a hatch." Weidinger also said that Mini is not planning to set any Nürburgring records with the new JCW GP even though earlier reports indicate that the car is a full 20 seconds faster around the 'Ring than its 2006 predecessor.
The new Mini John Cooper Works GP weighs 121 pounds less than the John Cooper Works Hardtop, offers a fully adjustable coil-over suspension and it will have a starting price of $39,950, (including $700 for destination) when it goes on sale later this year.
Mini Cooper SE Convertible revealed for electric top-down motoring
Wed, Feb 15 2023The electric Mini Cooper SE Convertible is officially a production car! Sadly, that production is exclusively slated for Europe right now, but if we all yell loudly enough, maybe we can get Mini to send some across the ocean. In reality, the chances of the SE Convertible coming here are nearly zero, if not zero. Mini is only making 999 of them as a small series experiment of sorts. Its powertrain and battery pack is the same as the hardtop SE. That means it’s sporting a single front motor with 184 horsepower. The 0-62 mph time for the Convertible is 8.2 seconds, and the electrically operated soft top (with a Union Jack) can be deployed at speeds up to 18 mph. Range is just 125 miles on the optimistic WLTP cycle, which is considerably less than the hardtopÂ’s max of 145 miles. Here in the U.S., the Mini SE is only rated for 114 miles on the EPA testing cycle. If Mini ever brought it here, weÂ’d expect the Convertible to suffer a similarly proportioned range penalty. Mini applies a number of unique exterior appointments to the SE Convertible. For starters, itÂ’s only going to be available in either Enigmatic Black or White Silver. The door handles, side scuttles and light/grille surrounds are then finished in bronze. All of the logos and model lettering gets painted in a glossy black. Plus, the “E” logo is displayed across the front grille with a bronze finish. YouÂ’ll notice “1 of 999” lettering on the side scuttles, and if you open the door to look at the sills, the same “1 of 999” emblem is present again. The steering wheel gets an “E” badge, and the interior is only available in a single spec. Black leather and heated seats come standard, and the glossy black trim does, too. Yellow accents, the same as you get in the Hardtop, all emphasize the electric nature of the car. Production will take place in the Netherlands, and cars will begin shipping in April this year.

2013 Mini John Cooper Works
Tue, 30 Apr 2013Location, Location, Location
Back in February, Mini invited me to come try out its brand-new Paceman coupe-crossover-hatchback thing in Puerto Rico, and not long after, I spit out a Quick Spin detailing my impressions of the little-big two-door. But here's what I didn't tell you: Mini also let me loose on those fine, curvaceous, tropical roads in its hottest hatch, the John Cooper Works GP. And while that behind-the-wheel gigglefest would have no doubt made for a story laden with positive notes and warm regards, the truth is, I only drove it for 15 minutes, so I couldn't in good conscience offer much of a story to you. (European Editor Matt Davis also got a short stint behind the wheel of the GP late last year.)
So for the sake of due diligence, I buckled down and spent a full eight days with the JCW GP back home in Detroit, just as springtime was starting to stick here in southeast Michigan. But after my time with the Mini, I was wishing that I could have just been left with my GP memories from Puerto Rico, where I was pushing the little hotbox hard around smooth corners and flexing every one of its muscles to eke out the full JCW GP experience in only a short timeframe.
