1989 Mini Mayfair

Description

Lightly customised ex-Jersey Mini hand-finished in matt black; de-bumpered; twin DTM-style exhaust; Halo lights; lift-off bonnet; bucket seats

Dating from January 1989, this rather menacing-looking Mini Mayfair was imported from Jersey and registered in the UK by our vendor earlier this year.

Hand-finished in Matt Black the car looks to be solid and has been de-bumpered giving it something of a ‘Sebring’ style look with the grille from a Mk 1 Morris and sits on a set of cool 10” alloy wheels with chunky tyres.  We also note fitment of clear rear light lenses, modern headlights with halo and clear indicators.

Under the bonnet, we believe the engine to be a 998cc lump as stated in the log book with typical four-speed manual ‘box driving the front wheels although it does sound rather fruity.  We also note a sports coil, red HT leads and engine block painted blue.

Inside, we find a recent set of bucket seats, piano black finished dash, three-spoke steering wheel, drilled metal door handles and window wipers and JVC stereo head unit.

In the boot we find a spare wheel, jack, battery and box of bits including another dash pod, Haynes manual, Jersey plates and other bits and bobs.

The history file includes the V5C showing one UK owner, current MOT valid until July 2024 recorded at 60,539 miles with one minor advisory (slight play in n/s/f inner rack end), HMRC import docs, a few bills for sundry items earlier this summer and a list of items that look to have needed attention mostly ticked off.

Offering a lot of fun potential, this looks to be a solid little car with scope to do more with or enjoy as is.
