AI Listing Summary
This exceptional Mk I Morris Mini Van 850, finished in its original Whitehall Beige, boasts a remarkable two-owner history since 1960 and retains many original components.

Condition
9
The car is described as being in overall great condition when purchased by the current vendor, with a bare-metal respray in its original color. It has never had any welding or panel replacement, retaining original panels, subframes, seats, glass, and electrics. Perishable and service items have been replaced, but key components like the engine, gearbox, and even original master cylinders and air filter are retained. The low mileage, though not fully warranted, further supports its excellent state.

Auctioneer’s Notes:
A truly exceptional example of a highly sought-after Mk I Morris Mini Van 850, finished in its original Whitehall Beige over a Tan leather interior.
Supplied new in 1960, this remarkable Mini Van has had just one former keeper, who owned the vehicle from new until 2017.
It has only recently been registered in The Vendor’s name in 2026.
Bought new by its first owner, the vehicle was specified with a Restall rear seat conversion and factory reversing light from new.
It was used and serviced up until around 20,000 miles in 1975, at which point the original owner sadly passed away.
The Mini was then stored by the family until 2017, when it was acquired by The Vendor.
