This car was parked right beside me at the KC All British show last year, it is beautiful! Glad to see he finished it, but sad to see him selling it already.....

I think the same fellow owns the 81 I posted the other day.....looks like he never did finish the interior tho, needs a rear seat covered and other bits done.

Nice Mini.   Normally I'd say $15K is high for a 998 car, but if it is a genuine Cooper it makes sense.   Is it?   Or is it just a Mk. II Mini 1000?

I noticed it's got a rod change instead of remote shifter.

I sold my 63 Cooper for over $20k recently and it only had a 998. Guess it's all about timing?
