was just thinking the same about the location. Thought it was South Coast way but doesn't appear to be now.

1965 Austin Mini Cooper S
"This Mini Cooper, AJB 4B, is the result of six years painstaking work to recreate that 1965 winning Monte Carlo winning car."

Another one, looks like a genuine start for a restoration, all be it with some ‘interesting’ previous repairs

I've been looking for the "relatively sound shell" mentioned in the auction description?? The one in the photos with even the horrible oversills rotted away looks shot to me. Still, it IS a proper Cooper "S" and, more or less, a one owner example too.

That car didn’t sell today. The concours Mk2 998 Cooper made just under £20k. The fast Fords all sold well!

Thanks 👍, I asked the owner how it had a Bournemouth number plate when it was delivered to Northampton. Never got a reply.
