£6K for a plate that barely resembles any works number I've ever seen (not that the world desperately needs yet another works replica does it???).... you can't say the seller isn't an optimist! :lol:

Yet another Mini ringing kit on Ebay, kerching!

The only words in the description that seem valid are "1967" and "Mini"

I like the way the guy covered up the reg number, but left the one at the bottom.

LOL

I sold my 'ex Works' mobylette scooter recently complete with ORX79F reg for just over a grand. It needed MOT'ing but would pretty much sail through with a couple of hours work.

He accepted the best offer for NJB 653F so didn't get the £5,000 "buy it now" price.

What was it worth, considering of course, that it is a blank canvas and you could create the best ever replica (of something) worth over £50k?

Yes with probably one of the vaguest number plates you could find! :lol: ORX 79F is a good one, my mate Steve should have had that for his '707F' rep. A vague number plate on an 850 log book with a decent rear parcel shelf to build a car from..I'd guess about £300?

I've never seen a works replica go for that money, AJB 44B is one of the best and reached about £35K at auction (unsold) in recent times, bearing in mind that an accurate replica with all the right parts will probably cost in excess of that to build!

Perhaps the ELF gave it's interior up for the Morris. Interesting hammered finish on the rad of the Morris too!!
