Hi i've been thinking about selling my r1 mini as I haven't used it much and as fun as it is to drive its just not really me. I've always had fords lol.
It's a z cars kit, rear mounted in a 1989 de-seamed shell.
Resprayed in Renault liquid yellow (not the best if I'm honest as its slightly different shades on doors) but does look nice.
The car has an r1 2003 injection engine 170bhp (approx 10,000 miles) mounted in the rear with sequential 6 speed gearbox with reverse being dealt with by a large starter motor which is switch operated on the dash.
Just had brand new complete clutch kit fitted.
Brake wise it has vented discs with ap 4pot callipers and cosworth callipers on the rear with Goodrich hoses all round.
Coil overs all round, alloy fuel tank up front.
Throttle is on a cable and has hydraulic clutch making it easy to drive.
Has tax and mot till aug 2013.
Interior wise it has bucket seats with harnesses, roll cage and fibreglass dash.
Spa digital speedo.
Carpeted and sound deadened throughout. It is fairly loud in the cabin but not unbearable.
8x13" minilite alloys with good tyres.
It is very quick with a 0-60 of around 4 secs.
It does need a few small thing sorting like the cv boot is split, fuel gauge doesn't work and bodywork/paintwork to make it mint as it has a few rust bubbles appearing around screen and under headlight.
I would be looking at around £9000 now reduced to £8500 open to offers.
Any questions please call 07841375109 and I will try and help.
Ideally looking for a cash sale but I do like mk1/mk2 escorts, 3dr cossies so could be interested in a p/x
Located in Warwickshire.
Thanks Karl.
