Early shell but doubt it’s the original one, and no V5

Nice airbox, comes in this kit from JanSpeed. Should have a K&N filter.

Shell looks pretty solid but I’m not sure it’s original. No V5 with it is a bit of a gamble, but mk1 Cooper prices look to be pretty strong just now.

I had those alloy JS parts but these didn't fit the normal airbox, the diameter is to large. You need to have the JS airbox aswell for the right fitting.

The 'Eco' part of his name obviously doesn't stand for economy .. check out some other prices :roll:
