Hello, 
I am selling an Australian 1970 Morris Mini, 1100 K, maroon color, manual transmission, and it's a right hand drive vehicle. I've had this car for about a year and I was planning on putting in a Honda B series engine, but alas I don't have the time, and it's a shame that this car doesn't get the driving time it deserves. It has all the goodies of the 1275 Cooper S Here's the breakdown:

1970 right hand drive Morris Mini
Manual Transmission
60,*** original miles
About 45 MPG highway, and 38-40 City
It was top to bottom restored by the "mini guy" after it was imported from Australia
Front disk breaks
Twin gas tanks
Electric fuel pump
Mini stage 1 kit
Freeflow exhaust manifold
alloy inlet manifold, 
performance exhaust system
K&N air filter
replacement carb needle 
manifold and carburetor gasket
Super core 2 radiator 
Dual air horn
New fuel sending unit (in tank)
1.5 Hif So carburetor 
High output alternator 
Trunk Battery Cut off.
Two 6 x 9 Alpine speakers
Sony CDX-6T360 MP (52W x 4)

Price is $15,000

These cars are known for rust problems, and this one is relatively clean, but on the drivers side quarter panel there is a quarter sized chip in the paint and unless it's taken care of it will eventually rust. There is also a little surface rust near the passenger side rain roof gutter. She has some minor scratches here and there, but it's an amazing ride where everyone asks what kind of car it is, or wants to get their picture taken with it. It's an amazing car and who ever gets is will be happy at the quality of the car. On a side note the guy I bought it from lived in Wyoming, so it rarely got used and they had a linkage on the car wrong, so the carburetor was limited to half throttle. About 30K of the miles placed on the car by the previous owner was under half throttle. The car has been tuned by Gram at Heritage Mini in Costa Mesa for the last year, and it comes with all the paperwork from the last two owners. 

If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to email me. 


Winning bidder will have to arrange pick up or shipping depending on desired method of pick up. 

$1000 is due no later than 48hrs after the end of the auction via Paypal.

Mini Minor to be co-developed with Toyota

Mon, Jan 26 2015

It was back in 2011 when Mini first showcased the prospect of an even smaller hatchback with the Rocketman concept at the Geneva Motor Show. In the nearly four years since, parent company BMW has hemmed and hawed on the possibility of putting it into production, but the latest word from Europe has it that the project is a go. According to Automobile magazine, Mini is realigning its product portfolio into five pillars: the essential hardtop we've already seen (available in two/three- and four/five-doors), the convertible, the upcoming new Clubman wagon (coming this summer with full-size auxiliary suicide doors on both sides), the next-gen Countryman crossover in 2016 and two new model lines. One will be the production version of the Superleggera roadster concept, earmarked for 2018. The other will be the Minor, a smaller city car reviving a long-gone model name and presaged by the aforementioned Rocketman concept. But for that last one, Mini won't go it alone. To develop the mini Mini, BMW will reportedly turn to its partnership with Toyota. The relationship is already set to yield a new Supra and Z4 and share fuel cell and other technologies. But this would broaden the partnership to include a small hatchback. However rather than use the existing (or next-gen) Aygo, which is already built under joint venture with PSA Peugeot Citroen (with which BMW previously had a joint engine venture), word has it that the BMW and Toyota will develop a new platform for the project – one that will be used by both partners. The new product plan doesn't leave much room for the Mini Coupe and Roadster (which have already been discontinued), for the Paceman three-door crossover (which will suffer the same fate) or for the projected seven-seater minivan. But the addition of the new Superleggera roadster and super-mini Mini aren't likely to leave us wanting for either. Related Video:

Mini forgets to bring car to LA, shows Citysurfer concept scooter

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

See that red thing? It's the Mini Citysurfer Concept. It is not, in case you were wondering, an automobile. Yet despite this apparent shortcoming, Mini has placed it on a plinth at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show.
The electric scooter weighs in at 40 pounds, can hit 15 miles per hour, cover 10 to 15 miles and can be folded up and charged in the trunk of a Mini Cooper (or any other vehicle with a 12-volt outlet and a roomy enough cargo area). According to the British marque, these qualities will give the scooter's owner the "spontaneous and convenient mobility even in those sections of an urban area not accessible to motorized vehicles."
It's not terribly difficult to see the appeal, as Mini explains it. With urban congestion becoming an increasingly serious problem - and some cities beginning to ban cars outright - the idea of an easy to charge and easy to stow runabout is extremely attractive. That's doubly true in the case of the Citysurfer, which is rather well equipped, as far as scooters go.

Next Mini Convertible spotted on flatbed truck

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Mini is well underway testing the third-generation of its four-place Cooper Convertible, as evidenced by these photos, showing the new droptop riding along on a flatbed.
Codenamed the F57 - as opposed to the "F56" designation for the Hardtop - the Convertible will ride on the same UKL front-drive architecture that will underpin its hardtop brother, not to mention its German cousins, the BMW 1 Series GT and X1. According to our spies, it'll share more than a few of the BMW i's lightweight technologies and will include such advanced features as electronically adjustable dampers. That seems like some high-dollar tech for a droptop Mini, but we'd be quite happy to see it arrive all the same.
From the beltline down, we can expect the Convertible to feature almost identical styling to the Hardtop. Based on the spy photos, there's not a lot to see above the belt line, either. The roof carries roughly the same shape, and will probably fold in a similar Z-pattern to the current canvas top.
