Classic Mini for trade for a MINI

hey all, i usually frequent the classic forums, but im selling my classic mini but have thought about selling it to buy a new style MINI. if anyone is possibly interested in trading their MINI for a Classic, or know someone that might be (or is just looking to buy one) let me know. i will do my best to check this side of NAM as much as possible, but feel free to send me a private message. i can provide more information and pictures if you'd like. here's my car:

1989 Mini 30 (30th Anniversary Model), Right Hand Drive, only about 1,000 made. more info on request

it can also be seen in the buy/sell section https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ct/2547/cat/39

I wasn't the one who imported it. I bought it from some folks that brought it here with them when they moved. Its an 82 on paper.

Post more photos of it.

Hey, I notice your username there. Do you own any Vespas? Would you like to trade this Mini for a restored 1965 Vespa 180ss? Just thought I'd ask.

Yes, my garage is full of Vespas and its my second job restoring them. I really don't need another Vespa but who knows. It really depends what you want for it. I've had some people offer me some really nice bikes for my car but in my mind, no Vespa is worth $5K+. Email me with info on your bike at ryan.wagner@me.com

The CD player is now in the middle of the UK dash and there is a 10inch rockford sub and amp in the trunk now.

If there is some interest, I can take pictures of whatever you would like to see. Thanks.
