Is a 997 engine really worth £2000?

Reckon they are the new revolutionary early 70's rubber balled drive joints which obviously never caught on

I can now see where I went wrong. All those years working in the motor trade - rather than my employer paying a few quid into a badly run pension fund I should have just asked for a few posters out of the showroom and BMC boxes from the stores

Yup, but make sure that they are the right models.
With my luck, I'd have had the finest collection of Maxi & Marina posters & boxes for my pension

Yes, but one day, even THEY will have SOME value! I do agree though that the early Mini seems to hold a very special place in people's minds/hearts/garages/collections/memories.
I wonder how much traffic around the world a Mk1 Marina or Maxi specialist forum would produce......
Maybe there IS such a place
