MiniMort Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 So when did Metros become so expensive on eBay. They’ve kept from about £500 to £2500! davehedgehog31 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat4alfa Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I knew they would. And I don't see why they shouldn't, when Minis are up in the trees. In fact I've been surprised values and interest have been suppressed for so long. I almost bought a 1st year miniMetro in that Apple Green for investment (and fun) ideas but thought better of it MiniMort 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve kept from about £500 to £2500!I papped an early 1990s model at a local used car site with a sticker price of £1995. I'll upload a pic of it when I get time.

Felly Magic Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Attention to detail on that Ital pickup, grille upside down for starters. I'm blaming the KLF in Peatboghorror, with their 'white room' for a lot of this nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schaefft Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 A C140 S-Class coupe is very high on my want list, especially in black (two tone black/dark grey would be even better).
