I'll be moving to CM in a couple months and will, sooner or later, want a car. A real mini (english, not german), '61 onwards, any engine from 898 to 1275 is my first choice. RHD a must. If any of you notice one for sale, I'd appreciate you posting me about it. Preferences follow: 1) deseamed 2) 10" wheels 3) No rust 4) Manageable rust 5) sunroof. But I'll pretty much take what I can get. Thanks.

I have seen one or two around town recently. There are any number of used-car lots, so tou should have no trouble finding one.

Didn't David A. drive one? With little roof-rack? I bet he doesn't need it anymore.. :o

One with a racing history is OK, but I'm not sure about a disgracing history.....

if you are in bangkok then about half way down ekkamai, going from sukhumvit,on the left hand side is a used car lot, (i think it is the only lot on ekkamai,) next to gleaming porsche is sitting an old style mini. it was there yesterday when i drove past. didnt get a close look but it might have been kitted out with alloys and lamps.

Mr Exile (voluntary, I hope), You could do me a great service if you could find an address/email or any other means of contact, as I won't be in BKK for a couple months. Any further details would be appreciated. My email is: [email protected] It's a perfect car for Chiang Mai, cheap enough, and I used to race them (well, a mini-midas, actually), and know all their annoying little vagaries and how to fix them. Alas, I cannot read (or scarcely understand) Thai, so communication must be in English, French or Spanish, in that order. Thanks. walker

I live in Phrae and there are six beautiful examples whizzing around town here. Phrae is 3 hours from CM

If I see one for sale I will mail you.

I used to race them as well, but a few (Ok a lot) years back

Thanks. My son stacked up my last one, 1275 bored out to 1380 cc, Oselli head, about 115 hp, a fiberglass monocoque Midas body (about 1150 lbs) and enough torque steer, even on 12 inch wheels, to be a little dicey on the wet. Nothing quite as radical this time, as the wife wouldn't even get into the last one.
