Stripey, what a nice and "vintage" Mini you have!
What is that outside colour? It is not Racing Green, isn't it?
Not sure what green the Stripey is done in....

My name is Ryan, I'm 18 and just brought my first mini a 1988 Austin Mini City E 1000. Its called Florence I promised to keep the name from the lady i brought it off needs a little work but its brilliant fun to drive! I'm gonna keep it as original as possible but have a nice exhaust system and few little bits and pieces on the engine like a speed o graph air filter just to perk up the 998cc engine :) its faded red but I'm gonna give it a nice green color like BRG!
Could anyone give me an info on the original extra on the 88 city please any link or knowledge will be welcome!
HAPPY MINI-ING!!
