Possibly £1600, that depends on what it looks like then and the colour.

[HARBER07]

Probably be something like island blue. At that sort of price though I wouldn't consider it. Think I'm left with only one choice then to be honest, which I would rather do than sell the car for a pittance. I'll use the running gear on the minus, and sell mine as a solid rolling shell. At least it leaves me with a driveable minus, which in theory won't need much money spent on it to get it useable.

Else if I sell my car, the Minus will still need money spent on brakes and engine to get it driveable, and all my funky custom bits won't go to waste.

I sold my standard mini a month or so ago for 2100, had a fresh £500 paint job which I had to flat forever to get looking smart haha. All the parts on this car are worth a bomb, it'd be worth smartening it up. Real aerocatches??

[HARBER07]

Proper Aerocatches, not the cheap chinky ones

[daveeeeee]

The parts on this car are probs worth most of these valuations, considering it's MOT'd etc I think they're a bit low. Personally I do feel it's a bit of a shame you put a load of holes in it though! But that's just me Good luck with the sale, aim high you'd be suprised!

[HARBER07]

I can't personally see it go for more than 1500. The amount of money I've spent on this over the years it would be a shame for it to go for that price. Would rather see the bits going to good use on our minus. As with any car, your rarely see your money back. As far as I see it, I've had my fun with it and its done its time. I've gained masses of experience with the mini, but now its time for a different challenge.

tangent: what's the plan for a new toy?

[HARBER07]

Nova GSI, stripped, caged, suspension overhaul, composite panels, and complete with a 260bhp ish 2.1 XE engine.

Should make a nice track toy.

Will see you on the track! Race on! Although mine won't be quite that special

[HARBER07]

What sort of spec is yours going to be?

I'll probably just run mine in standard form for a while and enjoy it!!

[mini-man-dan]

The guy I've bought it off doesn't know the exact engine spec, but he's just had it on the rollers at 161bhp and 148 ft/lb torque, attached to a 4 speed box. It's completely stripped out, cage, buckets, competition suspension bits n bobs. Should be a laugh! I'll send you a link to it via PM

Anyways, back on topic...

[danrock101]

how much does you're nova weigh dan?

and to keep on topic lol, OP, if you split it, I'd buy your wheels, ex manifold, megajolt, suspension and filterking lol

[HARBER07]

BUMP please. Would like a valuation as a bare rolling shell now.

[Shifty]

What do you call bare? Utterly bare(no doors/boot lid/frames)?
