Claphamrangie Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Anyone fancy a tilt at this old contemptible? 1993 Mini Sprite 1993 Mini Sprite carburettor model. 10 months MOT. Engine rebuilt by previous owner in 2015New rear subframe 2015Rear suspension rebuild 2015New driver's side inner and outer sills and floor 2016New rear wheel bearings in 2018 Minilite style wheels, Paddy Hopkirk gearshift kit, sports dashboard (auxiliary dials present but not wired in), Union Jack roof wrap. Has the more comfortable 'Metro' style front seats and a remarkably powerful stereo with USB connection. Whilst structurally solid, the bodywork is quite scruffy. The boot-lid in particular is on its last legs but I have a brand new one that will come with the car. The car drives nicely and is tremendous fun to drive. I have enjoyed owning and slowly upgrading this car for nearly three years but, having covered less than a thousand miles a year, it makes no sense to keep it. What do you reckon - £3.5k? theshadow, The Moog, Ohdearme and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthbay Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Good price on present values. Having had dozens of them can’t see me getting another so have been clearing out 20 years worth of bits, prices are mad now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
