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
