Wind Back Time
1967 Morris Mini 850 Mark 1
Specifications
Description
Just occasionally, a really superb example of a marque appears for sale and this is it.
The Mini was marketed under BMC's two main brand names, Austin and Morris until 1969, when it became a marque in its own right.
The Morris version was known to all as the Mini or Mini-Minor. The word minor is Latin for "lesser"; so an abbreviation of the Latin word for "least"–minimus–was used for the new even smaller car.
The Mini etched its place into popular culture in the 1960s with well-published purchases by film and music stars
ABOUT THIS CAR
- This car is in stunning condition having been very well cared for all its life. It would be hard to see or find another example like it. It has done 39115 miles from new and has had f0ur long term owners. The first two owners were in the same family who owned the car for 39 years. The third owner owned for over 6 years and restored the car mechanically, stripped the car down, repainted, fitted new rubber and five brand new tires. We obtained the car at the time and sold it to the now previous owner, who we bought the car back from. He owned it for the last 11 years.
- Paintwork is Stunning. All the rubbers, trims, external trim are in very good order.
- The interior is in Very Good condition throughout. Carpet showing its age a bit but perfectly acceptable.
- Mechanically sound.
- Car runs and drives very well.
- The tires and battery are all in good order.
- This low mileage classic car is hard to fault and drives incredibly well.
- Not your average Mini. Finding this car a good home is important - it would appeal to someone who wants a good example of this model.
Prices for these wee Minis continue to rise, especially MK1's, making this a smart, enjoyable, and appreciating classic.
