Hi if any has be offered or seen a mini which was stolen from ferns Lock just outside kilcock sometime yesterday sunday 4/11/07.
This a sky blue body with a navy roof. The front was cut off for a flip front to be fitted and the engine bay was painted white. Their was a metro turbo engine just sitting on the subframe and the front brakes were 7.4 inch discs which were off a cooper s. The interior was stripped out as i was going to turn it into a road going rally car. The rear seats mount were removed.
The car has sentinental valve as it was the first car i owned and i restored it over 15 years ago which took over a year to do.
If anyone has any information my number is 0872602700.
Thanks (a very sad) peter

Hi sorry no pictures. Their wasn't a whole lot to sell. I would say the engine was seized and the boby was in need for a full restore. Thanks for the help though

What is the reg plate? No never no it could turn up. It's things like this that just make me want to make Stud bullet proof!
