Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1980 Leyland Mini 1275 GT is a unique example with a Metro Turbo engine upgrade and a distinctive yellow and black color scheme. However, it's being sold without documentation and the odometer reading cannot be verified, which may require a new owner to apply for a replacement V5.
