My only worry is getting those twin carbs through an emissions test for a 1997 Mini.

Looks like a fake advert to me. If you check the sellers other cars for sale they are all pictured in different places. I am sure this person has links with another account based in Teeside, with similar adverts. They are phishing for emails and telephone numbers

SCAM ALERT. If you look at the other item's that are for sale, there are some real bargains

[smithyrc30]

Looks like the account has been hijacked.

Not been used for more than a year, previously selling baby clothes and stuff, never sold a car of any description...

[mk1coopers]

If a GRP one ends up selling for that what's a Trickett Sprint worth these days

And this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hawk-MiniSpri ... SwvUlWr~lh

for that sort of money I would like to know that it was correctly registered........

That was in the too hard basket, just the same as putting the rear silencer on the right way around was.

Do like this Innocenti:

Is it me or do the rear lights sit lower on the rear panel on Innocenti cars?

I'm not seeing much Mk 3 about that shell, square tunnel, later front subframe mounts, single cable handbrake etc.

Well it does hae a drip edge....and a rod change MkIII would have a square tunnel wouldn't it? Maybe a "crossover" year 75/6?
Seems to have an S front panel
