WTH??!?! Have you seen this item on ebay.

DO NOT BELIEVE a lot of the specs of the Speedwell Courier above.

Speedwell were very prone to being a little "imaginative" regarding engine specs when cars were being demonstrated for the magazines

well, if you tell the truth in a room full of liars, no one will believe you!

The owner needs sectioning, not the car!

That is in the same order of visual rape as a dutton phaeton.

Reportedly one of the seeds of the Mini genesis:

Actually £ 25,950

Even more shocking as I am pretty convinced the same car was on ebay about 3 months ago for £12,000 then at a dealer in the West Country for £ 16,000 and now it's in Beamish.

Who said cars were cheaper oop North?!

[mk1]

Iris Blue, Isis Blue, make your fricken mind up!

Whatever they say, it looks like Island Blue to me!

Idiots.

For that money, I'd want an S.

Is he not telling us something? Does it come with some sort of weird prototype engine or something?

They are an Aston 'specialist', what more would you expect than over-inflated prices!

[Pete]

If you can find a dealer in 2015 selling a decent Mk1 S for £25K, for one you'd be very lucky and second, he'd be a pretty useless/skint dealer!

Great early Hornet project here, with fabric trim, VERY few of these about and this looks a cracking shell!

Classic mini clocks where in working order last time they where used

That would be before the internals were stripped out of the speedo then

This looks to be quite a good early car:

Here is a mk2 Cooper for less than 25K:

Some lovely finds there. Pete was suggesting that it would be nigh on impossible to find a Mk1 S under £25k nowadays.
It still looks a very reasonably priced Mk2 Cooper though.

Apologies to Pete and all. I should have read the post more carefully.

Just goes to show, better to to read twice before putting fingers to keyboard than look an idiot.
