t’s had a couple of different sets of arches on it so some marks around wings but it’s a brilliant looking machine designed around performance rather than posing.
I have hundreds of pics if required.
I do have a BJ club twin axle trailer for sale which has had a service and new brake cables and tows beautifully (first option to mini buyer at £1200)Built from a bare shell between 2009 and 2014.
Car is in Aberdeen, Scotland, but will be at Blyton Track on 5th May for any viewing and could even be bought there and towed away. I will have all paperwork with me.
It really was built with the end in mind which was as light as possible with reliable high power engine but looking as normal as possible to a standard mini. I bought it from the chap that built it.
Handling and adjustability on the limit has been a priority on the set up of this car.
After 4 yrs I have decided to move it on as I have other plans
