“Very very slight rust at corner of door , that's it . £250 to sort out”
No picture of the rust though :( On a £25k car I'd expect the seller spending the half a monkey to sort it :?
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who do not possess it.

Some nice snaps in the advert but the wrong sills and the white roof would have to go if I had just blown my stack on it

Body is red and the roof is white...apparently.
Agree, I think a £100 or whatever on a proper detail/hot wash wouldnt go astray either...

This BMC Mini rocked up at the Pitford Farm show near Wimborne in 2014. The show is also noteworthy as a full fleet of period building contractors equipment all liveried as G & G.F.Maidment (Poole) Ltd turns up every so often - There are over 20 vehicles all in the same livery including dumper trucks, vans, lorries and a Mini van. Perfect for a film set.

There's still one down the road from me in full time employment!!
A caravan park near me owned and ran by a old boy who over the years has had many many enquiries but from what I understand he would not swap it for a state of the art Lamborghini tractor .

....I just noticed via a mssge from Jens....its a 1330 not a 1275.. nothing to do with Downton.. though I see the lovely Janspeed badge has gone .. I hope its still got the Janspeed inlet manifold .. Pat Howes beaut of an engine could probably do with a refresh now ....most of the period extras I put on to resemble a coach built car from what it was like when I bought it.. owned by me for 16 years.. also my eldest daughters wedding car by choice !!! what else ???!!!!..... a nice car but I would make no further comment as to the current sellers description because their are to many falsehoods..... !...foxy52 .
