It’s with a heavy heart that I’m selling my beloved MINI. I’ve owned this beauty since October 2014, and has been a fantastic little car. It has always been reliable, great fun to drive and has been genuinely well cared for.

Unfortunately, it has recently sustained damage to the passenger side. It also has some paint missing to drivers side wing and small dent (as pictures)As I no longer need a second car, I’ve decided it’s time for someone else to give her a new lease of life. She deserves to be repaired and back on the road rather than broken for parts. New replacement doors can be found on eBay for £90

The car is not a Category write-off and has never been recorded as such.

I’ve always tried to keep on top of the maintenance, and as you can see, a lot has been invested in keeping the car mechanically sound. It has been a much-loved car for nearly 12 years, and I’m hoping it finds someone who can repair it and enjoy it for many more years to come.

Viewing is welcome, and I’m happy to answer any questions or provide additional photos of the damage. Sensible offers will be considered.
