spawn Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Nice. Instead of storing it, fancy loaning it out once you get the Lupo? Good luck with the Loop search Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenLAST Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Quoted from The Mini Forum Awesome, where's the obligatory pic of you flying through the ford with water twice the height of the car though Nice wheels too, Alleycats are my favouritesI was on my own unfortunatly (which made it VERY hard to get in and out :withstupid: ), and it is very very bumpy under that water!

LupoGti123 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Are you joking!Was it a young Welsh girl called Lowri who bought it from you? You live in Yorkshire?Yep Lowri and her Dad came up for it. I miss it terribly but I needed some money and storing it dry to keep it mint was becoming difficult. I looked after that car from day 1 and it was always kept indoors while I owned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in a garage as we speak.I love lowri, i see her all the time.is her/ your mini a sport?Well the guy who I bought it off told me it was an original sport exactly as it rolled out of the factory. Lowri has done some research though and seems to think it might not be an original Sport which I was quite shocked about. I'm sure there must be someone out there that can give her a definitive answer. It's a lovely little car though. I've literally got hundreds of pictures I took of that car.

She doesn't do work unless she has to. The last message she typed anyway as i was with her at the time. I had my doubts on it not being an original sport as i was almost certain the sport version came with twin tanks, which this doesn't have, but it does have the 1.3 engine that came in them. I shall do my own research and give her a definate answer. It is in VERY tidy condition, and for what she paid, not too shabby at all! Have seen the Coopers go for so much more than that!Funny how small of a world this really is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jowey Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 absolute mint mini, just one of the greatest and most stylish cars ever .. not a fan of the rack though sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDGM Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I fancy another Mini, but it looks like 'scene tax' is hitting the Mini world too. Bearing in mind you can buy all the bits to restore one, there's really no need for such a hike in prices. I went to look at a 1275 Auto the other month and it had rust coming through from inside the roof. The re-imported Japanese ones look favourite I think.

MK1 GIT Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 i followed a mini out of college yesterday and it really made me want one. Even when I was driving down one of the crappest roads in town and thought 'god its rough in the lupo her in the mini must be shaking to death' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
