I paid £1600 for mine about 7 years ago and it owes me about £3500 in total struggle to see how this is worth 20x the price...

Nice paint, lovely interior and bloody hideous rear lights. And no details at all on any changes to the interesting bits (engine, suspension etc.)

You could probably build a mini using all new parts and get it exactly how you want with some good people doing the work for less than the price of this. It just reeks of a money grab in the hope that speculators and people with more money than sense will buy it.

I love a nice mini but this wouldn't be for me at all.

And you could probably build THAT mini for almost nothing if you taught yourself how to do all the necessary jobs and made all the panels by hand on an English wheel, but most people don't want to do that much work...

"All versions get a Pioneer touchscreen with sat nav, Apple CarPlay, USB connectivity, a push-button start and remote central locking"

WTF!!!! In which case, I must buy one.

And 75K.....for a copy!!!! confused Does this mean that if I paint a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's Salvator Mundi, I could sell if for considerably more than the $450 million that the original sold for. I'm getting my arse down to the craft shop now, if that's the case laugh

How about the original thing, hardly used for considerably less:
