I don't think it's a 500, it doesn't have a cert for it and it's not written on the car... But I suppose it can't be far off, think it was bought in October 2000

Not a 500 Just A cooper Sport, Same spec as 500's just not numbered. Think it pretty much same as yours buddy if i remember correctly. What you mean tail light???? You mean the fog light under the bumper?

My mini is now rust free. Windscreen surrounds were rotten. Bonnet rust dots repaired. Rust on the bottom of the passenger door now gone. Scratches on roof repaired.
