Hi Tom
I have some history about this mini, it was in our family for quite a while. My grandfather had it first then my parents. I will try and dig some photo's out. Its great to see it again!!!! Looks like it didnt get looked after at all after we last saw this in the late 80's.

Daz (rowley regis)

It is great to find a bit of history on a car when restoring, I went to Nottingham in my mk2 to meet second owner he was pleased as hell to see it and I was pleased to get some history including original service book off him
