Very similar car to one that was being sold on Carzone a while back on UK plates. I'd be wary as that car is not a '65, i'd say that plate is off a car that is rotted beyond belief and not in use anymore saving on the VRT. But that is my opinion but could be totally genuine :roll:

According to mywheels.ie, MZH190 is a 1-litre Mini Cooper but it's not a '65 shell as it hasn't external hinges and a whole bunch of other obvious clues.

If you buy it, just try reselling it down the road.

In all fairness to the guy he has stated "on a '65 plate". It's fairly obvious the car is not 1965, he knows it and a lot people buying it would know it too. I think even the asking price reflects the story here.

They are quite common, those manifolds!

There is a member on this forum who makes a similar claim in his personal profile:model:
1972 Morris Mini
Modifications: 4-Branch straight through stainless steel exhaust.
Twin 45 Webber Carbs.

And your point being????? Picking up on an error in my profile which is a 4 and should be a 3!!!!!! I know whats on my car, my car is genuine and not up for discussion here. I gave my opinion on that vehicle which I am fully entitled to, when my car comes up for discussion feel free to comment and until then keep it to yourself.
