Two out of three I might manage but all three is a step too far.
Re: The ebay thread
No (assuming it's not fecked). The 1.2 is quite different to other A2s and cost a lot more when new, they've always been more expensive like for like age & mileage with the other models. I think £2.5k is probably about the mid point for rhd A2s atm (the 1.2 was never made in rhd). I wonder if that one has the long range 42l tank.

Typo in the ad;
Does 100mph as the 3L version
should read

Re: The ebay thread
It's like anything in life, if it's of no interest to you it'll have no value (and the 1.2 has less prominent arches )
You made me curious about the prices being asked for them; https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/sear ... EAR&vc=Car

Re: The ebay thread
Well the rear suspension doesn’t look too healthy and I’m immediately suspicious of it not being UK registered. Expecting a “just needs <xxx> for MOT easy job” from the seller Also the interior is shagged and at 150k miles the whole thing is going to be very tired.
Rich is right, it’s one for the more committed fans. But for £2.5k I’d be buying a MINI and avoiding the potential nightmare of trying to register it. Sorry.

Please do let me know if you'd like to purchase this amazing bit of kit. Or if my ad's crap/I've missed something vital/you don't like the new wheel trims etc etc.
Great car, great ride, damn near as comfortable as the S Class
Re: The ebay thread
You've given it more consideration than I have (I thought "dark silver" would have been a clue ), you don't have to apologise for not doing something that was never going to happenSundayjumper wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 8:09 amWell the rear suspension doesn’t look too healthy and I’m immediately suspicious of it not being UK registered.

It's probably just got a boot full of digging equipment...
Going for another MINI would be a boring option, shirley (unless you had a use for this)?

Translation - I didn't think it through and just tried to make it look good, so the wheels are in an awful position right at the back of the trailer and basically puts 500kg straight onto your tow ball.

Re: The ebay thread
I always think these car based trailers must tow terribly because of the rear wheel position unless you use something with a big rear overhang.
I guess most are just for occasional car show things anyway.

You buy the front plate, I'll buy the back one. Makes it just £200 each.
