Firstly...........SPELL CHECK
, secondly, looks more Mini / Cooper than S, thirdly, he has the 1071 motor and other stuff, but you have to buy it by separate negotiation Regulator position is wrong, no servo, rocker cover breather wrong for early car. (Must be with other block)mk1coopers wrote:Firstly...........SPELL CHECK
That "1071 Cooper S" has got the big foot well pressings which makes it the mega rare 1960 model with the lights in the rear pockets.
Bidding was up at £15K before the pics even went up!
Looks like he may have sold it though? I hope the owner checked the numbers out with Heritage first cos anyone could have their logbook changed to 'Cooper S' by DVLC in the good old days just by fitting a 1275 engine and S brakes! I hope the buyer realises also that he won't get a V5C until he has a complete car up and running. Hopefully not by nicking a donor car!gs.davies wrote:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/classic-mini- ...

I've reported this one to DVSA. Tired of seeing ringing kits and ringed Minis about!
Definately a '60 shell! There's not many Mark, last couple on Ebay have been lemons like that one. I sold a peach of an original S earlier this year, wish I hadn't now!mk1coopers wrote:In the additional pictures there's dates of September 61' on some of the items, no signs of servo holes in the inner wing.
Are there any genuine cars out there any more, I'm glad I'm not in the market for a car
Why won't he get a V5C Pete? If that's a current V5C then surely a new one will just be issued to him.Pete wrote:Looks like he may have sold it though?

Unless they actually pay attention to the report
25k GBP with 6 days to go. Impressive
