Sweet, standard is best if you ask me, both of mine will be standard except for a sunroof in Phoebe and maybe some more comfy seats for cruising.

She certainly is tidy, looks like shes had new front seat covers recently. Good buy if you ask me :D

Personally i think it looked really nice (not that it doesn't now :) ) with those minilites on and the chrome rocker cover with carb etc :) Just a personal opinion. Looks a sound and very very tidy car, nice new interior and all.

It looks great apart from the engine bay, that looks like a different car, much dustier and dirtier.

Not as rare as you might think, there seem to be quite a few around. Very few minors are properly rare and therefor more valuable, only really the millions and early cars seem to fall into this category. (someone please correct me if I missed something)

The "rare" ones are the cars still with all the original fitments still in place like the photos of the pickup taken at Beaulieu.

Many new owners inherit the cars with some attachments and dispose of them without realising what they are :cry:

Your previous blue '68 Minor was also a disabled spec so probably not that rare if you've managed to find 2 of them!
