It is at least the 3rd time I've seen that green/white one advertised. Who on earth lined up those boot badges :lol:
Both of those Mk1s seem well overpriced considering so much poor detailing.

Very nice - I think if I were still looking for another Mini (and had somewhere to put it) I'd be having a shuftie at that.

Obviously missing something, why did he change the plates ?

It "lost" 40,000 miles between 2017 & 2019 according to the MOT history, bit of a time traveller, maybe that explains the number plate change :)

Another one who uses that hateful term 'swapped out', a Yankism that seems to have taken root in the English language amongst middle aged blokes trying to be edgy and down with the kidz.

The correct term is of course 'replaced'.

I had a look and checked out the Mini Minor Mk3 as I have the same colour one.

Say s that it is an excellent example, but I'm not so sure. The interior looks much darker than my cars interior and the British doors are not a good sign.

Probably to make it look a bit more like a Mk3 S, most of which had J or K suffix plates on ;)
