1986 Austin Mini with 8,850 miles from new For Sale

This is a three owner car offered for Spares or Renovation.

It has been parked up in a shed since 2002.

The mileage is 8841 only. The last mot test on the vehicle was done in 2001 when the mileage recorded as 8178. The last tax disc on the screen expired in 2002.

The car is in fantastic condition for its age. It can be jacked up on its jacking points, as shown in the photographs. There is surface rust on the vehicle but I have not found any holes yet. There looks to be no welded repairs on the vehicle.

The interior is as new. You would think it has never been driven.

The car can be rolled easily on the Nissan Micra 13 in wheels.
The 5 original 12 in wheels are with the vehicle.

There is a V5, an old blue logbook, 2001 Mot certificate, Service record with 3 stamps in it, Drivers handbook and 2 other Austin Rover guides with the vehicle.

The vehicle starts and runs with the automatic gearbox working perfectly.

The compression test has given the following figures;- No 1/ 157psi, 2/ 140, 3/ 130, 4/ 160 psi, before the vehicle was driven.


The car stops on the footbrake and the handbrake works. The underside of the vehicle has been treated in the past with a Ziebart type rustproofing. And it shows.

There are 3 Youtube videos of the car available;-

These cover a drive, engine start up, and underneath, respectively.

The bodywork rust spots have been treated with Krust neutraliser, and the spots painted in Rover "diamond white" to arrest any further corrosion.

The fuel line from the boot tank to the carburettor has been cleaned and blown through. The fuel tank, bonnet and boot have been removed for surface rust treatment.

The car is located in Liskeard , Cornwall and available for inspection by arrangement. It will need to be trailered away. Please note the location is 64 miles west of Exeter.

Please call the details below to arrange to view or discuss the car.

This is a fantastic time warp classic.
