2001
We bought a very clean 1981 Mini 1000 for SWMBO, and I fitted hardened valve seats to allow it to run unleaded. With that, and a good service, it took her to work reliably for 18 months or so.
When we advertised it, a very enthusiastic chap from Vancouver bought it, and we negotiated a bit extra to cover the cost of driving it down to Southampton to go on the boat. All in all, a very positive experience.
