A brief Classic Mini overview
Produced from 1959 to 2000 over 5,000,000 minis were manufactured, read about the mini since introduction here, today we wonder how many are left? Rutland Minis are proud to source and often restore quality minis. We are continually looking to buy cars, vans, clubmans, pick ups, coopers and estate variants. We currently have numerous clients looking for hopefully what you want to sell!
The classic Mini is a fair weather car, many people only take their Minis out during the summer months for organised rallies and shows. During the summer, Mini asking prices certainly increase. During autumn and winter, values seem to ease slightly and so, this is an ideal time to start looking for your new Classic Mini.
We must add that the desirable Limited Edition Minis are still very popular, especially the 30, British Open Classic with its full length electric sunroof. The market for vans, pick ups and mokes has increased dramatically over recent years, probably due to their rarity. Automatic minis continue to be worth considerably less than there manual counterparts. The last of the classic minis were the cars fitted with the Multi Point Injected engines (1997 – 2000), these cars are sought after, especially models that are the Sportspack variants with the 13″ wheels and larger wheel arches. Unfortunately these cars do suffer heavily with corrosion and thus values on these will range dramatically.
Classic Mini Dealers – Our likes and dislikes
As a company we prefer original cars. We are not keen buyers of cars that have been subject to engine and body modifications. If you wish your car to increase in value, we suggest that you don’t paint it in non-standard colours or fit fibreglass body kits etc.
Subtle upgrades such as walnut dashboards, headlight upgrades and alloy wheels will most likely enhance the value.
We are located in the East Midlands just South of Grantham in Lincolnshire. If you are located in Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire, Rutland, South Yorkshire or Cambridgeshire, we are probably your local classic Mini specialist. We look forward to hearing from you.
