The sad day has finally come. I have to put the mini up for sale. But, needs must. I need a car to do motorway milage, and the mini just won't cut it. Model: Mini Cooper Year: 1992 Mileage: circa 100k Tax: Dec '11 MOT: Nov '11 Location: Trowbridge, Wiltshire The overall condition is good if a little scruffy. The doors are the worst bit, buth they are not urgent, and I have another set for the car. Minitec (Mak) fitted a new rear subby with radius arms and pipes 18 months ago and sorted all the rear out from the doors back. The inside is A1 and a pleasure to be it, the engine is in excellent condition (I looked two years ago at the bores and they were immaculate) and there is no smoking at all. The car has done circa 100k mies, but is sounder than cars that have done half that. The car is stock Rover apart from the following: 1.5:1 Rockers High-lo's negatve camper on rear suspension Four spot lights De-striped and decaled John Cooper Works seats I would like it to go to an enthusiast who will love this little car as much as I do. I include a set of doors in the sale. Price: £1200 with Rover Wheels, £1500 with immaculate Superlights as well Contact details: Please PM me or reply to this and I'll give full address and contact numbers. Sorry, do not like publishing these details.

Long shot I know but I'm in a reverse situation to you.
I have a stunning classic Audi, I say classic it's a 1990 2.3 20v Audi 90, it classifies as a classic car for insurance and is regarded by Audi enthusiasts as a modern classic (and with good reason) but it drives like a new car, absolutely totally reliable and fantastic to drive, reasonable mpg and very smooth and comfortable on long distances not to mention epically quick on cross country roads.
I'm after a mini, if I'm being honest I was going to advertise the car for around 2k, but if you were interested then to be honest I'd probably do something around a straight swap deal, the Audis been my own car for a couple of years and has had a lot of money spent on it, in fact it's been babied, I would want it to go to a good home.
PM me if your interested.

Thanks for the offer, and the Audi sounds lovely.
But I'll politely decline. An 80 is too big for my garage and I've got a few cars in mind.
Jon.

Sorry No.
Wildoliver has hit the nail on the head with the Golf... I'm after a modern (boring) car.

They are 12x5". So only 1/2" wider than the original.
