The 1991 Mini Mark V came out of the factory with flared arches to accommodate 12” wheels and 8.4” power disk brakes (larger than previous versions). This was the last year for carbureted Minis, and other factory features on this Limited Edition Mayfair model include head restraints, locking fuel cap, tinted glass (a light green-blue), opening rear side windows, and an AM/FMcassette radio (stillfully functioning).
What sets this particular classic Mini apart is that it’s almost entirely stock. I was told it had always been garaged and it meets those expectations. The car has zero rust, the original paint is exceptional, and the engine bay is clean. There is a minute paint chip on the edge of the hood (see photos). All sound dampening foams are in good shape under the hood and the trunk, the steel spare wheel w/ tire is in place (appears original), and the original tools, jack, and owner’s books are included as well.
The original gray velour interior is firm and in excellent condition. The headliner is properly inplace and the only blemish is very minor discoloration to the carpet underneath the floor mats. New floor mats are spotless, and the original set is included (they’re worn, but nevertheless a very good indicator for how well this car has been preserved).
I bought this Mini from its second owner in Italy. He selected such classy upgrades as a chrome grill, a Nardi Rosewood steering wheel, and complementary rosewood trim around the dashboard and panels. All original parts are included in the sale so the car can be returned to its original form in a matter of hours. The“Royal Air Force” decal on the roof is easily removed, and can just as easily be replaced w/ a checkered flag, Union Jack, or whatever inspires you.
Also included are the secondowner’s service records, which show the head was rebuilt about 4,000 miles ago. New timing parts and gaskets were installed at that time to ensure many more years of smooth operation. The engine starts and runs flawlessly, it has a sporty sound, and it gets 42 mpg.The 1991 build date qualifies this Mini for classic car status in most locales, meaning it can be registered and insured for very little.Overall this Mini needs nothing and is ready to be driven daily.
If you’ve read this far, you’re probably aware that this incredibly quick andnimble car dominated rally racing in its day. As the vintage decal on its window reads,“ruling the bends and bending the rules” is the expected standard for classic Minis, and its cornering and braking abilities will shame modern sports cars on twisty roads. Not only is it a blast to drive, but it's deceptively roomy as well- I’m 6’4” and fit comfortably behind the wheel.
