1979 MINI 1100 SPECIAL

Chassis No: XC2SIN655359

Estimate: £4,000 - £6,000

The 1100 Special was launched in August 1979 to celebrate the Mini’s 20th anniversary. Unlike most that came before, the 1100 Special was cosmetically and mechanically upgraded. Powering the car was a 1,098cc Clubman-specification engine, pushing out 45bhp and 57lb ft – and was the only non-Haynes fronted Mini to benefit from the 1100.

Visually, the 1100 Special was spot-on. It boasted metallic paint in either silver or rose, graduated stripes, wheel arch extensions and standard-fit alloys. Inside, it was equipped with the 1275GT’s instrument pack and full-depth centre console. Contemporary advertising put it so well (underneath a very fetching interior shot) with its pithy tag-line, ‘You take the Daimler dear, I’ll drive the Mini’.

In the end, 5100 were built after the initial planned run of 2500 sold out in double-quick time, forcing BL to run off an additional 2600.

This lovely and highly original Mini Special was bought by the current vendor on 24th November 1979, in 1984 the car was transferred to her father before going back into her name in 2001. Lovingly maintained and boasting all its original features, this is truly a time machine back to 1979 and would be a superb addition to any collection.

1967 MG 1100

ONLY 27,500 MILES RECORDED FROM NEW

Registration No: GFV 902E

Chassis No: GAS53/111263

Guide Price: £6,000 - £8,500

The Morris 1100 was launched on 15 August 1962. The range was expanded to include several rebadged versions, including the twin-carburettor MG 1100 (introduced at the end of September 1962), the Austin 1100 (August 1963), the Vanden Plas Princess 1100 (October 1963) and finally the Wolseley 1100 (1965) and Riley Kestrel (1965). The Morris badged 1100/1300 models were discontinued on the launch of the Morris Marina in 1971, but the Austin and Vanden Plas versions remained in production in the UK until June 1974.

There are only 149 examples of the MG1100 known to still exist with the DVLA and this must be the best original one left. The mileage is warranted and it comes with the original bill of sale, as well as a copy of an article from a local newspaper dated March 1994, showing a picture of the car with the number plate visible, and its original owner with the article stating the mileage then as 21,000 miles.

Whilst it is now of course both tax and MOT exempt, it passed an MOT in December 2018 with no advisories. It drives very well with recent new tyres all round and comes with a copy of the AA handbook for 1966/67 in the glove box. The vendor states that is would make an ideal museum exhibit.

Note: This description is provided by the vendor and unless otherwise stated is 'Not Verified' by Barons or any person employed by Barons. Prospective purchasers are advised to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any statements made, whether they be statements of fact or opinion.

1979 AUSTIN MORRIS MINI 1100 SPECIAL CONVERTIBLE

This is a rare and interesting 1979 Mini 1100cc special convertible conversion, with a super low recorded mileage, and in very nice condition. The car is believed to be a Pan-Am conversion. It is described by the vendor as a super fun car, that has benefitted from extensive work having been carried out over the past few years to maintain the car in this high standard, including a new MOT and service, a new blue hood recently fitted, new sills fitted, plus what looks like a new or refurbed rear subframe, and some brake work carried out.

The last owner has had the car since 2014. The exterior paintwork is in very good condition with no signs of rust etc, the rear boot floor is in very good condition, as are the floor sections. This vehicle during its conversion process was extensively strengthened and is solid underneath. The vehicle has been restored in the past and is in its original colour. The Mini 1100cc Special came with special edition alloy wheels, 2 colour choices, upgraded bumpers, and there is also a hood cover with the car. Mini only made a limited amount of Mini convertibles towards the end of the run, and it is believed approximately only 300 were built. With these vehicles commanding prices well in excess of £10,000 and up, this 70s car should be a great value and fun motoring for this summer.

Note: This description is provided by the vendor and unless otherwise stated is 'Not Verified' by Barons or any person employed by Barons. Prospective purchasers are advised to satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any statements made, whether they be statements of fact or opinion.
