Pah - its just a grown up mini :p

(but it would be cool as a pootling around car)

what colour is it?

(there is no way i'm going for it, just curious now)

do you think you could get a zetec fwd package in it? would be interesting at the lights as i'd guess it would be lighter than most cars these days.

'what colour is it?'
Weren't they all British racing purple?

am i right in thinking that the 1750 head had the bigger inlet and exhaust valves ? The MINI tuning boys always wanted then for their 1275 A series lumps. Try advertising on a Mini forum too. Hth

Why free. You at least want scrap value for it. If someone took it and weighed it in they may get £150.

Post it on Retro-rides forum, you will probably get a lot of interest.
