Mk2 Factory Mk1 Body, Syncro, Disc Brakes,
RHD Australian - 1275cc w/4-Sp

......please be patient while the many photos load.....

Very cool and clean little 1969 Morris Mini for sale. Super clean, newer interior and nice body with no rust or rot on an older, shiny but nice looking paint job. Good glass, trim & chrome. Starts; runs and drives great with lot's of power. I don't know when the engine was built but our British mechanic checked it and compression is 140-145 across the board. Recent tune up, spark plugs and he just installed a new manifold gasket. (You'll see that when I shot the photos that the bonnet was misaligned from having it off the car to do the work, we just took care of this). The syncromesh 4-speed transmission shifts great up and down through all of the gears. The brakes are quick and responsive with 7" discs upfront and drums on the rear and the car has brand new tires on the 10" rims. It has been wired with antenna and speakers and ready for your sound system. The lights are all in working order as are the gauges. It's turn key and ready to enjoy.

The car is Australian built which is why it has a Mk1 body. When the Mk2 cars were released in Australia, cost constraints on production meant they did not inherit the changes made to the body, such as the grille and the larger rear window. In addition, the Australian Mini was a bit different from the UK car because they already had made several smaller changes as well such as roll up windows. In the end it was the non-Cooper S that received greater improvements than it's sportier sibling. The biggest change for this early Mk2 was a syncromesh transmission.

I've been driving the car a lot over the last few weeks and know it well so feel free to call me at 707-332-8331 if you'd like. Thanks for checking it out.

There are another 105 pictures in addition to what you see here as well as video so you can see and hear her run. See the link at the bottom of the page following the first 51 image slide show.

Also, if you have one car or an entire collection to consign and are anywhere in California,
please consider Left Coast Classics.

Thank you for visiting!

Next Mini Clubman nearly ready to haul

Tue, Jan 6 2015

With the three- and five-door Mini Hardtop models successfully hitting the market and the pending arrival of the hot John Cooper Works model at next week's Detroit Auto Show, Mini can turn its eye toward another important model, in the form of its next-generation Clubman, which our spies have spotted testing on the roads of Germany. Aside from the rear barn doors, the next Clubman looks to have a lot in common with the new five-door Hardtop, which makes sense considering how much the current car has in common with the R56 that it's based upon. That similarity ends quickly once you take a look inside the cabin. The typically open Mini cabin is more dramatically segmented in the new Clubman, with a high transmission tunnel that separates the driver and passenger. In a worrying move for fans of parking lot shenanigans, Mini is moving to an electronic parking brake in its new model, although beyond that, the center stack is similar to the redesign Mini pushed through for this latest generation. As is the case with the current Clubman, the next-gen will likely share its engines and gearboxes with the Hardtop, meaning a base 1.5-liter, three-cylinder turbo in the Cooper Clubman and a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder in the Cooper S Clubman. Six-speed transmissions, in both two- and three-pedal varieties, will likely also be offered. Check out our gallery of spy photos of the new Clubman, up at the top of the page.

2019 Mini Cooper 4-Door will have new head- and taillight designs

Mon, Nov 13 2017

Squint hard and you'll still probably see the exact same car. Squint really hard, then pull up multiple side-by-side photos on multiple screens, call in a buddy, and then you just might be able to see how the 2019 Mini Cooper will differ from the current model year. This is a midcycle refresh of a Mini - if you were expecting something different, we don't like your odds in Vegas. But, let's take a look at what is clearly new on the test mules spotted by spy photographers in Germany. Although the camo is doing a bang-up job, the taillights are different than the circular, bubble-like elements that are currently on the Cooper and that we saw in our last 2019 Cooper spy photos. The reverse light seems to be in the same position, but the bold horizontal LED strip could indicate the Cooper will be adopting the Union Jack-inspired taillights from the Mini John Cooper Works GT Concept unveiled at Frankfurt in September. On the other hand, those concept taillights did not have the large vertical element of this camo'd test mule, nor can we see any evidence of diagonal elements. Maybe they're just going with an English flag homage, to hell with the rest of Britain? Maybe not. Up front, the headlight clusters are also different, but they do seem to be the same upgraded headlights we saw on that Mini test mule back in May. There is without question a visual similarity between these and the JCW GP Concept - albeit without the red color. We're not sure what the rest of the camo might be hiding up front, but it doesn't seem to be anything major. Back at the rear, there seems to now be a bit of a lip built into the trim piece above the license plate. As for mechanical and interior changes, we wouldn't expect anything big on that front, either, as Mini has rarely made noteworthy updates mid-way through a generation.

BMW looking to save billions with cost cuts

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

BMW is planning a fairly extensive overhaul in a bid to recoup some its annual costs, with CEO Norbert Reithofer (pictured above) aiming to save three to four billion euro ($4 to $5.4 billion) per year to help keep the company's profit margins between eight and 10 percent, while also maintaining investments in production expansion and new tech. BMW's profit margins sat at 9.4 percent in 2013.
According to Automotive News Europe, Reithofer is none too pleased about costs at Mini and on the 1 Series, although neither AN nor its source story, from Germany's Manager Magazin, elaborate on what steps could be taken to improve losses on either project. That makes it hard to figure out just where the fat will be trimmed from.
What may happen, though, is that BMW attempts to trim 100 million euros ($135 million) from its German labor costs each year; a solution hinted at a few weeks ago by Germany newspaper Muenchner Merkur. While a dramatic cost reduction, 100 million euros still doesn't begin to even approach the savings envisioned by Reithofer.
