Front Disc Brakes
SUPER RARE 13" Mahle BBS Wheels w/50 series tires
Koni Shocks

This little gem starts up, runs strong and stops on a dime every time!!! It's quick off the start and handles like a go cart! Not to mention you can park 2 of them in 1 parking spot.

As with any vehicle nearing 40 year old there are going to be certain issues, and this one has very few. The instrument gauge that houses the gas/temp gauge doesn't work and the speedo is about 10mph off (I believe it's due to tire size). There are a few rust spots as pictured, because it is from England you know! And as with everything British with a motor, it leaks a tad bit of oil from time to time.

If you don't want to get noticed, don't buy this car! At least half of the people that see this car will point, stare, do a double take, smile, look it over, follow you home and generally just want to talk to you about it! And if you have a dog, let her ride shotgun and that just adds to the fun!

These cars are averaging about $20,000+ restored!

I've owned this car for a couple years, drive it almost every day and it has been 99% problem free! It has a clear Oregon title in my name and is current on registration.

This classic vehicle is sold as is where is with no warranty implied, so please ask questions if you have them. You're more than welcome to come out and and inspect it personally and take a ride!

I will assist in any way I can to get it shipped to you at the buyers expense.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding!!!

Mini apologizes with chocolate rose after spamming customer's inbox

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

If you're a manufacturer, there are only so many ways you can say "sorry" after your automated e-mail system goes berzerk and spams everyone on your mailing list with hundreds of the same message. Mini recently found itself in that very spot, and rather than respond with a sheepish mea culpa, the company's PR team took a different tack by sending owners a very unique gift box. How unique? Inside, one owner found a set of chocolate roses, a roll of duct tape and a genuine can of Spam.
In an accompanying note, the company said it hoped the sweets would help patch things up between the company and the victims of the e-mail barrage, but in the event that wasn't enough to do the trick, the duct tape was there to help out. And the can of Spam? That tagged along just for stress release. Apparently the canned meat is squeezable. We wouldn't know. You can check out full photos of the gift box here.

Mini knows how you take your coffee after a test drive

Thu, 11 Oct 2012

Mini Netherlands wanted to give its countrymen a good reason to test drive its cars, so it threw in a free cup of coffee with the spin - but not just any old cuppa joe. Cars were fitted with a sensor that analyzed the driver's style. The chip was then placed in a special coffeemaker that produced a blend to match the driving; middle-of-the-road test pilots would get a lungo (long) coffee, test-the-rollcage types were given a ristretto (short, and stronger).
The knock on the head for U.S. drivers? Milquetoast test drivers were given an Americano - a watered-down espresso. You can watch the unique promotion at work in the video below.

Lots of Land Rovers, Jaguars and Minis actually survived that near-capsized ship

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Despite a severe list to starboard, many of the 1,400 cars and SUVs aboard the 51,000-ton Hoegh Osaka are currently being recovered in salvageable condition, with video showing some of the vehicles from British brands Land Rover, Jaguar and Mini, being driven ashore under their own power. The car-carrying vessel developed a severe list on January 3 and was intentionally run aground on a sandbar between England and the Isle of Wight. It has since limped its way back to port in Southampton, where damage assessments are being conducted on both the ship and its $53-million in cargo. According to the company that owns the car carrier, the ship itself only suffered minor damage in the incident, while Car and Driver is reporting that many of the damaged vehicles will almost certainly be scrapped. Still, the fact that there are vehicles, some of which appear undamaged (look at that Defender at 0:50!), being removed from the Hoegh Osaka needs to count as a net win.
