Used Austin MINI 1275 GT
Description
Bare shell nut and bolt restoration in 2021/2022 and carefully stored since; what a cracker!, Launched in 1969, the Mini 1275 GT was the hot version of the new-look Mini Clubman and was intended to replace the old Mini Cooper S which duly ended production in 1971, leaving the 1275 GT as the only sporting Mini on sale for the rest of the decade. Not quite as rapid as a Cooper S, it was cheaper to buy, run, and insure. Safer and better equipped than the classic round front Mini, it also featured a close-ratio gearbox as standard. Performance was lively for the time with good midrange torque although the quirky bluff front end kept the top speed down to 90mph. This 1275 GT has been in the our ownership for 3 years and the previous owners (an absolute car nut!!!) since 2017 who had bought with the intention of restoration but just didnt get round to it due to several other restorations and commitments. This is very rare opportunity to purchase the original hot hatch... The Leyland Mini 1275GT with the Clubman front finished in beautiful condition having had a recent full restoration with a new Mini colour combination (Thunder grey), many new parts and lots of new panels fitted. This tastefully modified 1275GT drives superbly, has an excellent original condition interior and gets looks you would expect everywhere it goes! The underside is as nice as the exterior as is the engine bay.... This GT has benefitted from a major restoration including engine rebuild, new brake system, new suspension components plus will benefit from a health check carried out in our own workshops prior to hand over, 12 month MOT, plus a 6 months RAC CLASSIC Specific warranty with complimentary 12 months RAC roadside assistance. Please get in touch to discuss finance, part exchange, delivery and warranty options. ***VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, PLEASE CALL TO ARRANGE***
