Hi Kieron and welcome to the forum. That's a lovely Japanese spec Mini. Looks good with the 12" wheels, the lovely MPi seats, steering wheel and A/C.

That's a very unusual mini for south african shores...
Would love to see it in person.

Welcome to the forum.
she arrives end January, and i will be pleased to show her to all the guys for their input. When sourcing there were two main considerations, UK cars are mainly manual gearbox, but never with AC, whereas Japan is 90% autos. and all have AC I figure if i want to use her as a daily, and living in Joburg, maybe try an auto! this is how im hoping she will look when finished
My last Rover Cooper i imported from UK in the '90s
