Lot Ended
Description
Much recent
expenditure; only 68,956 miles indicated; from a small car collection in
South Wales; lots of good recent expenditure
First registered in
August 1989, this Mini Thirty is one of the Limited Editions built to
commemorate the Mini’s 30th birthday in 1989. Fitted with a 998cc engine
powering the front wheels via manual transmission, it is showing just 68,956
miles on the odometer.
Coming with a good-sized
history folder, we find lots of expenditure dating from 2021 to 2023. This
includes services, a new thermostat, condenser and rotor arm from Drivers Choice
in Devon. Drivers Choice also supplied and fitted a new brake master cylinder in
July 2021, a starter motor in September 2021 alongside a slew of other remedial
work in 2021 and 2022.
Most recently we can see a full brake system
overhaul and a steering rack refurbishment in July 2023, the work being
undertaken by KMJ Restorations in Exeter. Unfortunately, we do not have any
invoices detailing the car's earlier life, however it is clear to see that this
Mini has been used and cherished.
Inside we find black cloth and
vinyl seating with red piping and red carpets. Finished in black,
the bodywork looks straight and the paintwork looks well for its age, some
micro blistering is just beginning to appear in places but on the whole it's
looking smart and has been running nicely on site with an MOT until August
2025.
Please note - declared
Category C in 2007.
