The time has come to clear my garage a little.
I have to sell my favorite toy, Ive simply got
no time to play with it anymore, but I just don't
know what its worth.
Basically its a 1978 Mini 1000, with a few 'tweaks'.
Engine is Minisport 1400 stage II, unleaded head.
Brakes are Metro turbo vented four pots, and 1275 drums.
Suspension is adjustable Spax classic units,
Wheels are 12" Minilites with Yokohama tyres,
interior is MG metro with a rear cage.
So its got all the right bits.
What do you chaps and chapess' think?.
I want to make sure it goes to a good home but
how much is it worth????????

As always, What someone is prepared to pay for it.

I know that's not much use so, with mini's especially and generally most other cars, modifications generally mean nothing to the value as most mini owners modify their cars in some way shape or form.

With mini's it's condition of the body that counts, if the shell is sound (it will be rusting somewhere) then someone may be prepared to pay reasonable money for it, i'm not going to give money quotes, but something to consider in your own valuation.

Bung it on ebay and it'll sell for a silly amount.

If it's pretty, it'll go for a fortune.
