Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1981 Austin Morris Mini 1000 has been prepared for competition with a Metro 1275 A-Plus engine and racing modifications. While it has a French registration, significant defects like stiff steering and subframe corrosion mean it's best suited for motorsport enthusiasts or track use, not regular driving.

Condition 

3

The car has undergone significant modifications for competition use, including a stripped interior and a more powerful engine. However, the technical inspection notes major defects such as stiff steering in the braking system and corrosion on the left rear subframe, requiring substantial reconditioning and limiting its suitability for traditional road use. Therefore, it falls into the 'Below Average' category.
