Dream buy! - Jared Mk3 - 10-09-2015
Yes, a lot of guys would like a new Mk1 or a Cooper S or something, but if I had the money, I'd buy this! I'd use it too. Oh, it has 8 miles on it!!

very nice !

You wouldn't be able to use it though... since any mileage that you'd put on it would cause it to depreciate...

The real special thing, to me at least, is the fact that it's a "new" classic Mini that can be bought 15 years down the line and you end up being the first driver of the car. Not many opportunities like that.

I'd drive it, cars are made to be driven and it'd be an absolute tragedy not to use it.

I guess... though surely some cars should be preserved to show what these legendary cars looked like when they came out of the factory.

Possibly, but then 5 million Minis were made, with many being fully restored.
