Looks very tidy, there a few imperfections the worst being a hole in the wing. I havent been for a drive yet but im buying it from a mate. Apparently its pretty quick, stage 3 head and the like. Still umming are ahhing not a 100% yet, I have wanted one for ages.

Any opinions, advice and things to look for appreciated. Pics aren't great but you get the idea.

If it's solid, buy it, it's a good few years further into it's appreciation stage than a Nova, you will almost definitely sell it for more than you buy it for.

I learned to drive in a mini maifair when I was about 12, in fields at the farm I used to live on, great wee cars,
that one in the pics I love with the wider wheels and arch mouldings, IMO the last of the proper minis!
