How on earth could any respected trader list that Mini as a 1968 Cooper? They are having a laugh. It is a 1978 / 1979 Mk4 car with a 1968 Mini Cooper identity. Andrew, you are very correct that car should be checked by the DVLA before some unsuspecting person spends their hard earned money buying a fake. It is time this was hit on the head as it is discrediting the Mini movement big time which label they do not deserve.

Just love the MK II boot badges on this :o

I made sure everything under the paint is how it should be as I worked at the Factory at Longbridge in the paint shop where these cars where built for many years
In that case I'm surprised there is any paint on it; hope he didn't spray it with the vacuum cleaner at the side of it :lol:
