Hello all,

Have been wanting a hillman imp for many years now (as my first car) but it's not happening.

So i'm turning to the mini, i was jut wondein where i may pick one up for around £300.
I have access to lots of race parts etc, and a 1380 engine, as my dad's friend race in the mini miglia's a year or so back.


All info' greatly appreciated!

Dan

I do realise mini's aren't realiable, and i am not going to stick the 1380 lump in, i was just contemplating the fact that it was a possibility for the future.

I have my mind stuck on a mini, so there's no way i'll move onto a 106 or a saxo, unless an imp comes to me for the right money.

Try looking in the classified ads at the back of "mini magazine" or "mini world" you quite often see mini's that have failed the MOT because of some rust on the sill. I got my mini for £100. It was complete and running but with rotten a-panels. Best of luck
£100, if you see anymore like this please pt me in touch!
