1979 Mini Classic Mini British Classic Open

An amazing Mini Cooper in Incredible shape, all original and never messed with or had anything done to it to make it not stock. Very rare condition because most Mini owners will do tons of upgrades - a car is truly only original once, this car is!
This car is in pristine condition for its age - the mini dealer near us offered to keep it in its showroom. Yes, the color is called "British Racing Green" - it does have a metalic flake look in the sun - see the garaged photo as well for color.
Everywhere we have driven this car peoples jaws drop. Only 1000 of these were ever made and only a few are in the USA - this Mini was made for the German Market - We currently drive it 2-3 times a week, hit's 70mph no problem.
Was imported into the States in 2006 where is sold for $12,500 from Continental Motors. It has been garaged ever since.
Please watch the video here of a walk around and it driving.
