1982 Mini HL Automatic. 7,500 miles from new!
Description
Purchased by me in 2020 from a garage that had recommissioned the car following a 30 year period unused. The garage attended to the following:
Wheel Cylinders. Brake Master Cylinder & Brake Hoses. Radiator.
Fuel Pump, Fuel Tank & Sender Unit. Water Pump. Exhaust.
Cylinder Head Removed, Unleaded Conversion & De-coke.
4 New Tyres. New Battery. New Points, Condenser, Seam Trim, Oil Filter, Oil, Wiper Rubbers, Spark Plugs.
I have had the suspension replaced with new cones and also electronic ignition was fitted by Minisport in Padiham. I have added a pleasurable 3000 miles to the original 4,500 miles and can report that everything works well. The car is totally rust free, with original panels and paint. Although only used by me in dry weather, I took the precaution of treating the wheelarches and rear subframe with Waxoyl to prevent possible corrosion in the future
The last MOT was at 5, 831 miles in June 2022. Since then it has been registered as a Historic Vehicle (free road tax and MOT exempt)
The oil and coolant were last replaced at 7, 000 miles in June 2024
