The 1989 Mini 30, celebrating 30 years of the car, is one of the better-regarded of the limited edition Minis. 3000 were produced for the UK, 2000 in Cherry Red and 1000 in Black, as here. This example has been stored for 10 years, so has no MoT, but does run and drive. However, recommissioning is required. It has some period options fitted such as the nudge bars, and retains its original radio, shelf speakers, engine cover, and jack and wheel brace in its original bag. This example was registered in August 1989 and has circa 90,000 miles showing on its odometer. There is no MoT; its last was in August 2011 at 89,758 miles. Three registered keepers overall are shown on the V5C.
The Mini comes with its current and previous V5Cs, some invoices, (including one for a gearbox rebuild in November 2009), its Austin Rover movement card and all MoT certificates from 1993 to 2011. There's also the handbook, dealer directory, consumer guide and service record, with entries up to June 2002 at 61,582 miles.
