1988 AUSTIN MINI DESIGNER

998cc petrol, 4-speed manual. Finished in Jet Black, this Mini Designer is one of 2000 limited edition cars designed in collaboration with the British designer Dame Mary Quant. The distinctive interior has well-preserved black-and-white striped seats featuring Mary Quant’s name, and the odometer displays 77,676 miles. The Mini has been unused for 23 years so recommissioning will be required, and we have found that the brakes are binding, although it did recently pass an advisory-free MoT which is valid to 20th August 2027. 

The car comes with its handbook, previous and current versions of the V5C which record 5 former keepers, and a few MoT certificates covering 1998 to 2003, along with its present certificate.
