Extremely rare US spec LHD factory Mortis Convertible. Restored about 12 years ago but only 350 miles since restoration. Great shape throughout. Just thou roughly serviced after long storage. New carb and brake rebuild. For those unfamiliar, the Morris shares mechanical components with the Austin Healey Bugeye Sprite or MG midget so parts are easily obtained. A great little British convertible that seats 4 people. The paint, interior and engine bay cosmetics are nice even though done several years ago. The Morris Minor was the forerunner to the Mini and designed by the great Alec Issigonis who wanted to make a modern family car with the maximum space possible for the interior so 4 adults can sit in comfort. They became beloved in the UK and most of the colonies as they were great to drive, dependable and had cheeky good looks. Because of this, they were in production from 1948-1971. The Convertible was one of the rarest and most popular models. Most of the Morris Minor Convertibles out there are either cut down coupes or rusty UK RHD cars. It is rare to find a real LHD US Spec dry example like this. For sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. Must be Sold!

Terms: Buyer to pay shipping, although I have a good contact for a reasonable rate ($650 to Los Angeles for example) Of course sold as is where is with no guarantees or warranty. Must be paid for within 5 business days. Thanks and good luck

Mini John Cooper Works Paceman is a hot hatch crossover coupe

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

The Mini John Cooper Works Paceman, the seventh in the JCW line and called "the first Sports Activity Coupe in its class," is here. It takes its place at the top of the Paceman food chain with a 1.6-liter, twin-scroll turbocharged engine putting out 218 horsepower, with 201 pound-feet of torque on tap and 221 lb-ft available with overboost. Those numbers get the JCW Paceman from zero to 62 miles per hour in 6.9 seconds with either the six-speed manual or automatic transmission, but top speed with the automatic is one mile per hour shy of the manual's 140 mph. Fuel economy has been rated at a combined 35.8 US mpg on the EU cycle.
It earns its JCW stripes with a suspension that's been lowered by 10 millimeters over 18-inch lightweight alloys, Mini's ALL4 all-wheel drive, an aero kit to beef up its profile, plus a sports exhaust with dual chrome pipes. Inside, a sport steering wheel and plenty of contrasting materials represent the lineage, further emboldened by Chili Red accents to match the exterior.
The Mini JCW Paceman will say "'Allo, guv'nor" to the world at the Detroit Auto Show next month, then hit showrooms in March. The press release just below can tell you all you want to know about it until then.

2014 Mini John Cooper Works Paceman All4

The One Mini Should Have Taken Rallying
It needs to be said: Mini using the Countryman as their World Rally Championship racer's bodystyle of choice has done them no favors on the marketing front. And that's what it's all about in motorsports these days: marketing and image. We have just driven the 2014 Mini John Cooper Works Paceman All4 through Frankfurt's surrounding rural areas, and even in thick snow where few souls dared to tread, it has singularly rekindled some faith in the John Cooper Works sub-brand - a glorious name whose credibility has been threatened by portly and somewhat pointless products like the JCW Countryman.
The JCW Paceman is a little quicker than its Countryman relative, a little lighter, hunkered down lower, and better looking. We can't say we're crazy anymore about the stock Chili Red details and black exterior they keep showing us at these launches, but that's just paint. Then there's that projected pricing of $36k-plus that puts us on the verge of yelling "¡No mas!" But the All4 system on our 215-horsepower Paceman worked extremely well when paired with a set of exceptional Pirelli Sottozero Winter 210 Serie II tires (sized 205/55 R17 91H all around). The combination of all-wheel drive and good rubber encouraged us to gradually up the average speed and enthusiasm the further we drove along.

Not Too Odd, Not Too Maxi. Is This Mini Just Right?
We recently got our first time behind the wheel of the latest iteration of the Mini Countryman, the 215-horsepower John Cooper Works model, and were left less than enthused despite the inherent fun factor that a JCW badge brings. Our time with the crossover suggests the Countryman is just too weighty and soft to properly wear the badge.
We have also spent loads of time in various Mini Clubman trims and, despite the oddity of its configuration, this model may be our overall favorite in the current Mini lineup. But it is decidedly not a volume seller, which Mini needs.
