1992 GENUINE MINI COOPER IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. FUEL INJECTION MODEL (SPI). THIS CLASSIC MINI DRIVES PERFECTLY. I RECENTLY TRAVELED TO A CAR SHOW IN FLORIDA AND RETURNED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS OR CONCERNS. THE INTERIOR INCLUDING THE SEATS, CARPETS AND HEADLINER ARE ALL IN WONDERFUL CONDITION WITH NO STAINS, TEARS OR SCUFF MARKS. THE CAR STARTS UP STRAIGHT AWAY WITH THE SPI FUEL SYSTEM. THERE IS NO CHOKE PULL OUT AS ON THE CARBURETOR MODELS.

THE PREVIOUS OWNER BOUGHT THE MINI COOPER IN 2000 AND IN 2002 DECIDED TO HAVE AN EXTENSIVE REBUILD. THAT WAS CARRIED OUT BY THE MINI PLACE IN SUNDERLAND, ENGLAND WHICH SPECIALIZED IN CLASSIC MINI RESTORATIONS AND REPAIRS. THE REAR SUBFRAME WAS REPLACED. THE TRUNK FLOOR WAS REPLACED. REAR BUMPER PANEL WAS REPLACED. SIDE STEPS AND SILLS WERE REPLACED. DOOR POSTS, SCUTTLE AND FRONT FENDERS WERE FITTED. ALL THESE REPLACEMENT PANELS WERE FROM THE HERITAGE COMPANY, APART FROM THE REAR SUBFRAME. IN 2005 THE OWNER DECIDED TO STORE THE MINI IN HIS GARAGE UNTIL 2014 DUE TO WORKING ABROAD MUCH OF THE TIME. HE DID START IT UP FROM TIME TO TIME AND OBTAINED THE MINISTRY OF TRANSPORT TEST CERTIFICATES THAT ARE MANDATORY IN THE UK. IN 2016, HE DECIDED THAT HE WANTED TO INSTALL A NEW "OLD STYLE" COOPER 130MPH CENTER CLOCK AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER TOGETHER WITH A NEW RPM COUNTER CLOCK THAT SHOWS 2,439 MILES. BEFORE IT WAS REPLACED, THE ORIGINAL THREE-CLOCK CLUSTER SHOWED 55,000 MILES ON THE SPEEDOMETER.

THERE IS A HISTORY FILE SHOWING THE MOTs TOGETHER WITH SERVICE WORK CARRIED OUT AND PARTS. THERE IS NO RUST THAT I AM AWARE OF, HAVING HAD A MECHANIC CHECK THE MINI OVER THOROUGHLY AND REMOVE THE INTERIOR TO CHECK THE FLOORS, TRUNK AND UNDERSIDE. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO FIND A TWENTY-SEVEN YEAR OLD CLASSIC MINI IN THIS REMARKABLE CONDITION.

I HAVE MANY MORE PICTURES. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU REQUIRE MORE INFORMATION OR PICTURES

Mini Paceman Adventure photos arrive by the trucklette-load

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

Yesterday, we brought you the news of the existence of this Mini Paceman Adventure tiny truck, and the story of how it came to be. Long story short: it was a lighthearted collaboration between apprentices and instructors at parent BMW plants in Germany. The mini-sized pickup bed and off-road kit may not make the Paceman All4 actually practical, but we'd argue that they do make the one-off fairly loveable.
Apparently the Mini photographers agree with that "loveable" part. We'd heard that there were some better, higher-resolution images of the Paceman Adventure on the way, but we didn't expect there to be hundreds of them. But as you can see, the shooters went out and thoroughly documented the pickup, shooting it in several locations, still and moving, and documenting some of its construction as well. Find your favorite in the massive gallery of images, above.

Mini lineup could expand to include up to 10 models, still no hope for Rocketman

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

During an event in Ponce, Puerto Rico last week where Mini introduced members of the media to the 2013 Paceman and John Cooper Works GP, product planners discussed that the brand's lineup could expand to eventually include up to 10 bodystyles. Currently, the Mini range consists of seven models: the Hardtop, Clubman, Convertible, Countryman, Coupe, Roadster and Paceman.
Speaking to members of the media, David Duncan, Mini USA sales manager, said that these new models could fall into a range of niches - "any segment that makes sense for a small car." No specific vehicle classes were discussed, but Duncan stated that the possibilities are endless, "as long as we're the smallest player in any segment."
Well, nearly endless. We've been hoping that Mini would re-think its decision to nix plans to create a vehicle smaller than the Hardtop - a notion previewed by the excellent Rocketman concept (shown above) from the 2011 Geneva Motor Show - but the automaker once again stated that this is absolutely off the table. In order to create a vehicle of the Rocketman's size, a completely new platform would have to be engineered (that's expensive), and while Mini has looked into acquiring existing architecture from another brand, parent company BMW has reportedly put the kibosh on such an act. If a Rocketman is ever to be born, BMW/Mini will do it on its own, and right now, that simply isn't in the cards.

Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
