£40,250 equates to about €49,400......

No Joe,I think I will take a leaf out of Darrans book and the next Mini I buy will not be a rust bucket requiring 1 years worth of welding.

:shock: :shock:I did not think it would go for that kind of money, I would love a 1959 mini :D
I think one came up for sale a year or two ago in the UK built late may 1959 and sold for £15000 it was in a garage falling around it. Nice to see that pre launch 1959 mini's are still coming out of the wood work.
