Mint means as good as the day it left the factory. I was a Dinky Toy collector & mint/ boxed meant just that. The same misuse of the word happened in the toy collector world it was buyer beware. I see lots of Cosworths go through MAD & have yet to see a mint one or even close to that. Mine is good because its been maintained regardless of cost & always garaged its a B1 at best & not even close to mint. Anything over factory Miles & it cant be mint.


mint

Expression used in The North Of England meaning good

Ah, thats well mint!
