Newbie here. I love the classic minis and have been wanting one for a while. I have been over to England many times to visit family and have just fallen in love with the old models. I finally have funds (not a whole lot) to buy a decent one and do a little work to it. I found one in the UK that looks like it's in good condition (I could have someone over there check it out for me) that's a reasonable price. The link is below.

I just am not sure about shipping. I have done some research, but am not sure about the flat rate it would be to get it here...my guess is 1-2k. It should, I'm hoping, have no problem getting over since it is over 25 years old. Hopefully I'll be able to enjoy some of the things you guys do in the wonderful cars.

Lots of hands-on experience, shipping options and guys in the UK with real time experience.

 

Thanks a lot
