Some of you may have noticed my signature for ScottishMini.co.uk and have been meaning to post the reason for a few months This is our Mini that was bought as a project for my 14 year old son (the first locost is my 17 year olds project). Bought car for £100. Its a 1979 850 with a genuine 38,000 on the clock backed up by a mountain of paperwork. So far we have got everything to repair it exept a quarter panel. Hopefully it will be on the road by the summer. At a rough count this is my 25th Mini

The good side!


Ouch



One gauge is good enough


My first Mini. 1982 Aged 15



If you are interested the story of the car is here Scottishmini.co.uk

Thanks for looking
Ronnie.

He's gonna have good fun with that!

I was looking around at Minis when I bought my Polo but there was no chance of me spending £600 on something that needed eff loads of welding.

One of my mates has a 1979 850 in the same colour and its a nippy little thing even 5 up! Although the speedo reads 55mph at 30 for some reason!
