Wow, now at 1200! On the other hand, this is one of the very best Bronzes driving around. Technical, interior and exterior all in perfect condition. Getting a banger in this condition would cost thousands.

I agree, it is the best mk2 out there, if it was a Mini Marcos it would be at £6000 now judging by what they seem to be fetching these days, especially ones outside of the UK.

Now sold, I hope you got a good price for it Brian. Anyone here bought it?

hello there beutiful machine,esp in white. did you manage to sell it. if not just a few questions. would some1 of 6ft 1beable to drive it without any problems(whats it like to drive). how many gears does it have. and is it true they leak like a sive lol.

hope for your quick reply

mark

Hi Mark, yes he sold the car

I'd imagine a standard mk2 would be a bit tight, although it depends on if you're long in the torso.The late Russell Bulgin of Autocar fame drove a mk2 he was 6' 7" I think, the car had a ramp moulded in the floor to gain headroom.

You should fit a mk3 if it has the right seats fitted, they have one inch more headroom than a mk2.

99% of Midas cars will have a 4-speed box being based on the A-series engine and they don't leak like a sieve if built properly.

thanx for the quick response. do you think one would beok for someone who does 50- 60 miles a day. sorta like half in the morning n half at night

cheers

Yes I'm sure you'd be fine doing that kind of mileage each day. I ran one as my only car for about 10 years! Bear in mind that as a Mini-based car they are high maintence compared to cars built these days.
