1986 Classic Mini

Here is one of five classic mini's that I imported about two years ago from the UK.  Two have been sold and this is the last one.  I'm keeping the other two.  The only reason that I picked these particular Mini's to sell is because one that I'm keeping is a bare shell now and the other is an automatic trans with A/C.  This particular mini has a 1275cc engine out of an early 1990's Mini with the SPI engine.  This is not a fuel injected Mini. She, Teresa, has been fitted with a 1 3/4 HIF44 SU Carb.  I live outside of Seattle, about 85 miles NW and have driven her to Portland twice.  Runs great.  The fastest I had her up to was 85MPH.  She wanted to go faster but the State Patrol in this state doesn't have much of a sense of humor so I had to back down to 75. The fiberglass kit that surrounds her I believe is what is referred to as a Zemec kit in England.  It is such a clean job that you would think she came from the factory this way.  She does have one small crack in the fiberglass which I have tried to show in the photos.  As the pictures show, she does not have her original seats but they are adjustable and she doesn't have a rear seat.  Rear seats are sold new from 7ent.com, a big classic mini parts supplier in California.  A couple of items do not work.  The speedometer cable is broken.   I know that for a fact because I can pull it out. I use my GPS as a speedometer. The tach isn't accurate  I was told that it is inaccurate because of the engine swap.  The engine was designed as a fuel injected and now she isn't.  And the clock doesn't work.  She came without a radio and she still doesn't have one.  She has a roof antenna with the cable running to the radio cutout.   The UK title shows her color as silver, but I'm guessing that she has been repainted as the paint job looks really good.  The headliner has also probably been redone.  Looks great in its jet black, felt like finish.  No cuts or tears.  The interior is flawless. The carpet and seats are also in really great shape.  Teresa has had a number of upgrades since I got her.  Two items are the Pertronix Ignitor II distributor replaced the stock distributor and she was fitted with a Flame Thrower HV High Voltage Coil.  Their are numerous other upgrades and are shown on copies of the invoices from Jet Motors.  Jet Motors deal exclusively with Classic Mini's.  The only two items that I can think of where I don't have copies of the invoice is the clutch master cylinder rubber hose was replaced with  a braided stainless steel one and the HIF44 Carb was completely rebuilt by SUcarb.com  Actual mileage listed may be higher because I do drive her.  Listing may end early because she is listed locally.  $100.00 Paypal non refundable deposit due within 24 hours.  Balance must be paid for by wire transfer or certified check within 72 hours.  I will consider a REASONABLE offer.  Just email if you are a serious buyer.  Clear WA State title in my name.  If your in the area, your more than welcome to take her for a drive.  The Buy it Now price is less than what the car cost me,   Cost involved were the cost of Teresa, having the car picked up from the purchase location and delivered to the Southampton docks, the cost of the boat, all the custom fees, the broker to handle the mountain of paperwork, Tacoma dock fees, the cost to have her transported from Tacoma to Port Angeles, and finally all the cost to have her registered here in WA state.

Thank you for looking.

2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop officially revealed

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

There are occasions in life when something happens in the outside world and I think, "Damn. I wish Dad was here so we could talk about this."
In the past 13 years, that's happened every time Mini unveils a new model. And that's been quite often in the 12 years since the car was reintroduced - it has expanded to include seven different models, which is a testament to how quickly the updated Mini caught on. My Dad, who passed away in 1996, loved the brand. His first car was a Mini, and he'd race it in illegal rallies around the Irish countryside in his 20s, before he emigrated to the US and tried to (mostly) stay on the right side of the law.
Mini released photos and specs for the third-generation "original" hardtop car today. The company had to slap in the term "original" in there to differentiate it from the Convertible, longer-wheelbase Clubman, Countryman crossover, Paceman three-door crossover, Coupe and Roadster. Coming out with that many nameplates in 13 years is unprecedented growth for a company that's essentially brand-new in the US.

Classic Rover Mini is a passion-inspiring plaything

Sun, 01 Sep 2013

Ask anyone that's driven a classic Mini, and they'll probably tell you that their first reaction to driving it was a lot like the start of this video - whooping, shouting, laughing and a whole lot of smiling. This video, from Jon Quirk, editor-in-chief at Auto Trader UK, highlights the connection between him and his Rover Mini Paul Smith. He really nails the man-machine interface that makes owning a great car so much fun. Besides that, Quirk does a good job of enumerating what is so enjoyable about driving a fun car on a twisting road.
For our British readers, this video is also meant to test the waters for a new format from Auto Trader UK, called "I Bought One." With Quirk's Mini, the car-buying site is looking at telling the story of people and their interesting cars. We think this video is a great start, with high production value and solid content. Head on over to the YouTube channel, and let them know what you think. But first, scroll on down for the entire video on this awesome Rover Mini.

2021 Mini Cooper 1499 GT adds sporty, retro attitude to the three-cylinder Mini

Fri, Oct 23 2020

When you think of sporty Minis, you probably think of the Mini Cooper S and John Cooper Works models with their (relatively) large turbo four-cylinder engines. But with the 2021 Mini Cooper 1499 GT special edition, Mini is trying to bring a dash of sportiness to the base three-cylinder model. The car's styling and name is inspired by the Mini 1275 GT that was introduced way back in 1969 as a more affordable, but still sporty, alternative to the Cooper S. The number represented the engine displacement in cubic centimeters, as it does on the new 1499 GT. The black paint scheme with gold side stripes is the inverse of the launch color for the 1275 GT. Further adding to its athletic looks are black badges and trim, 17-inch wheels, and John Cooper Works-style front and rear bumpers, side skirts and hatch spoiler. The interior also picks up an array of John Cooper Works parts including the steering wheel, seats, shifter and pedals. In front of the steering wheel is the digital instrument cluster from the John Cooper Works GP. Mini also adds a few equipment upgrades found in upper-trim Cooper Hardtops such as dual-zone automatic climate control, automatic lights, automatic wipers, a 6.5-inch infotainment screen and navigation. What the 1499 GT doesn't get are any performance upgrades. The turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder makes the same 134 horsepower and 162 pound-feet of torque as its Cooper siblings. It comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic is available as an option. The suspension is unchanged as well. Still, we've found that the base three-cylinder Mini is a thoroughly entertaining car to drive. To pick up one of these special edition Minis, you'll need to fork over $27,890. That's about on par with the Mini Cooper Signature trim, so it isn't completely unreasonable to pay that much for a three-cylinder Mini. But buyers looking for a sporty Mini might be tempted to skip over the 1499 GT for the more powerful Mini Cooper S, which starts slightly less at $27,250. Related Video:
