Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1970 Morris Mini Cooper S, recently sold for £16,500, features significant upgrades including power steering, a replacement MG Metro A+ engine, and new tires, with only 30 miles driven since its last MOT.
Its extensive history includes a magazine feature in 1988 and substantial invoices for recent work, making it a well-documented and mechanically refreshed classic.
Condition
8
The car has had significant recent investment in 2025 (£8k) for upgrades including power steering, engine work, new gearbox and clutch, and new tires. The mileage is low since the last MOT. While it has a replacement engine and gearbox from the original race setup, it is presented in a well-maintained and upgraded state, justifying an 'Excellent' rating.
