Plate: 398 FOD
Colour: white
Country of registration: UNITED KINGDOM

Beautifully restored 1960 Mini mk1 2-door saloon. Technically it is a 1960 Austin Seven - not to be confused with earlier cars of that name - the 'Mini' moniker was not applied to this model until January 1962, but it's a mini none-the-less. Like the Morris-Minor, designed by Alex Issigonis, and built at Austin's Longbridge plant. Engine capacity 848cc, registered October 1960. The mini is a true emblem of 1960s Britain, and this is a great example!
