Torsten2001 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Not wishing to be out done by Mr Angry Dicky I went to have a look at this today and accidently bought it. Two owners from new, MOT & tax, lots of issues but sooo 1982! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BMC Dan Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 What a charming old mini Farina!! Missed out on an identical (although tidier) E reg one the other week that the owner let go for almost £1000 less than the original asking price . Mind you I have an Allegro that needs shifting first before anything else can join my fleet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooters Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 lovely mate, remember I told you I won a really nice one of these on ebay last summer was just about to collect it from Sutton when some young bird totalled it when parked - drove a V70 into the side of it and broadsided it. Old geezer selling it was distraught - he bought it new and ran it his whole life - this was him giving up driving...write off. I looked at buying the wreck but it was not going to be worth it when factoring in delivery to Scotland. I bought the Sherpa instead. Really like these though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Nice buy!, I was chatting to a bloke at the boot sale today who said he's got a 1959 and a 1967 A40 like this as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Nice one Torsten! Here's a Cypriot one to keep it company: Plus of course this... Can't agree with Cavette about the colour, although it was very popular; many seem to have survived. Mine will be Henley Blue and Snowberry White, eventually.
