it is a sad day for me to admit but pinkle has got to be sold to make way for a family friendly car
she is a 1985 'c' plate the best way to do this is with a list i think so here goes,

custom pearl paint pink/purple/blue with white pearl roof, arches, bonnet stripes and mirrors
1960's roof rack with hard wood slats
original option mini sunvisor (mega mega rare)
100 spoke chrome lowrider wheels imported from america (not as mint as they once were due to age and weather could be made mint with a paint) also 5th spare wire wheel (that is mint)

the arches are genuine rover sport pack
chrome bumpers

now the not so great bits
a panel has bubbled up and just split the paint

What kind of family friendly car are you after. The wife has a 55 place Citroën c3 vtr, in black with just under 60k on the clock. Valued at about £4k. Plus cash you way if interested.

i second that!

[lowandslow]

sorry mattdc2r i have my eyes on an audi S4 avant or i have been thinking of a saab 9-5 HOT aero estate but thanks for the offer i want to go big and fast lol

[garrett3]

Really nice motor, Good luck with the sale buddy

[mattdc2r]

Totally understand. I've got my eye on an E60 M5. Real value for money, just the toad tax is a little steep. Good luck with the sale.

[lowandslow]

right, have now got myself an audi S4 so the mini will be parked up at my unit till it sells.

[lowandslow]

to the top we go my bouncy little mini

[lowandslow]

sunday bump

[oli8925]

Cant believe you're selling this. I remember seeing it in Minimag and then shortly after you parked next to me at SMD '08 (I think). Can't say it was ever to my tastes but credit where due, something completely different and very well finished. Deservedly drew big crowds. Good luck with the sale.

[DAVEY_C]

she is a beaut but man i love that front windscreen visor

[lowandslow]

thanks oli8925 and davey_c, i am gutted to sell up but needs must and yes it does pull a crowd lol i remember mr ruggles saying once that 'i'm sure i could stand next to your car with my bits hanging out and no one would notice' that kinda made me smile. he wasn't brave enough to try though
