That looks like Clipper Blue - a Morris colour. Surely if it were an Austin it would be Speedwell blue?

needs bracing across the door aperture and then cross fingers the subby doesn’t drop out with what’s left of the front end!

Unbelievably original Moke on Bring a Trailer with the auction ending in 3 hours. 1,500 mile, original owner car.... So many original bits still in place on the vehicle (including things like my recent obsession, the spark plug wires and caps). https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1966- ... i-moke-10/

It’s the same family that sold their beach car a few years ago for $230k. They were an Austin dealer in Michigan.

Look's like a really clean original Moke

Sold for $60k to the same guy who bought the same seller’s beach car for $230k…

Crazy money!

Classic Car Auction Christmas Sale has a couple of interesting MK2 cars.

https://www.classiccarauctions.co.uk/th ... 22/2022-12

First is an ex-Liverpool Police S. It looks tidy and has a fair estimate. Also it looks like a road car, so no having to dismantle it if you want to drive it.

Second is a '69 Super Delux with an interesting history. Estimated at the top of standard Mk2 values, but does look good and has only 33,200 miles on the clock.

A 1963 997 Cooper. Not many pictures to look at but has a fairly low estimate

https://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auct ... -997cc-sb/



A rally prepped Mk2 Cooper that is ready to go. Ideal for HERO events amongst others.

https://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auct ... mk-ii-mrp/



Finally something a bit different, a tidy looking early A40 saloon. Imagine this with a warmed-up engine and some Midget front brakes.

Library pics of one they sold last year.

Auction waffle should be taught at universities as a skill.

"The history of this revolutionary motorcar is well-known and its impact socially, culturally and mechanically is well documented. The Swinging Sixties, The Beatles, Twiggy and the Mini are inexorably combined to represent an era that is remembered with great fondness by many people. Very few classic cars have seen such a meteoric rise in values as the Mini has over the past five years. The Mini holds an iconic place in British motor car history and in the hearts and minds of anyone who has owned one, it is safe to say no other car can spark a conversation zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Just **** off.
