1992 Classic Mini - British Open in Racing Green Color
This car is made in 1992 and the VIN# SAXXNYAXMBD051811
The Mini British Open was introduced by Rover (Ex-Austin) in 1991 first in UK for a total production of 1,000 units and later introduced to Germany with Left-Hand Drive in 1992 for another production of 1,000 units. Typically the British Open has a power sliding cloth roof with 1275 c.c. and they are all in racing green color with the British Open logo on two sides and at the back. They all have beige cloth seats.
This British Open Mini has all of the above. It was imported from Germany 3 years ago and it was repainted in the same racing green color after it arrived Toronto. A few upgrade had been made, such as a performance exhaust, performance air-filter and a set of new alloy wheels and tires. Other than that the car has most of the original features and parts. The car also comes with the original fuel injection, therefore the engine is very easy to start up. The power sliding roof is working very well without leaking. It has never been driven in winter and it is always kept in a covered garage.
The car is in very good running condition. Since it is a 20-year old car, there is no warranty and the car is sold "AS IS". Serious buyer can make an appointment for inspection or test drive. The car is located in Markham (25 miles north of Toronto).
The successful bidder needs to pick up the car himself or make arrangement for shipping at his own cost. He has to make a deposit of US$500 within 48 hours after the auction is close and the balance can be paid in cash, wired transfer or bank draft issued by a Bank acceptable by the Seller.
SERIOUS BUYER TO BID ONLY AND ENJOY THE AUCTION.

Sorting through the rat's nest that is Mini's model history
Sat, 13 Apr 2013What do Austin, Morris, British Motor Corporation, British Motor Holdings, British Leyland, Rover Group, and BMW all have in common? Each company has had a hand in bringing the world a sprightly, fuel-efficient, front-wheel-drive fun box on wheels - the Mini.
The Sir Alec Issigonis-designed car has been sold under more brand names and with more model designations than most of us would guess. For seven generations of the classic Mini, from 1959 to 2000, the car carried a bewildering number of model names as well. (Note that's even before BMW took over the nameplate, and starting building cars styled as "MINI" rather than "Mini" in 2001.)
As is its want, Hemmings Daily has taken the time to break down the complex lineage of the car, with a kind of model etymology that makes for a pretty entertaining read. Click over to the site to give it a go; but check out our gallery of classic Mini pictures before you jump.
2013 Mini John Cooper Works GP will start at $39,950*
Thu, 25 Oct 2012Get your wallets ready, folks. The 2013 Mini John Cooper Works GP arrives this fall, and we've now learned that the cost of entry for the potent little hatchback is $39,950, (*) including $700 for destination.
Aside from an adorably tough appearance, that just-under-$40,000 price tag gets you a whole host of performance goodies, including a turbocharged four-cylinder engine good for 218 horsepower and as much as 207 pound-feet of torque. No, that isn't any more oomph than what you get in the standard JCW Hardtop, but there's a whole lot more to the GP kit. For starters, there's a fully adjustable coilover suspension, not to mention a reduction in overall weight - at 2,558 pounds, the GP is 121 pounds lighter than a normal John Cooper Works Hardtop.
A Mini spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the JCW GP can only be purchased one way, and will be offered as an option package on the standard John Cooper Works Hardtop. Its starting price represents a $5,150 increase over a standard JCW model, and is the most expensive model in the Mini range (the next being the $35,550 John Cooper Works Countryman).
Mini blows up over women applying makeup in cars
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Distracted driving is a very real problem. From drivers with phones dangling from their ears to those constantly adjusting the stereo or dealing with rowdy children in the back seat, anything that diverts attention away from the act of driving is a potential danger. And yes, that would indeed include applying makeup while driving.
Publicis, the advertising agency used by Mini in Mexico, came up with an inventive (or offensive, depending on your point of view) way of reminding female drivers "that there's a time and place for everything." And while we're not quite sure of the veracity of the statistics cited in the video below, or even the necessity of its production in general, perhaps we'll just take it as a reminder to pay attention while driving... no matter what else happens to be on our minds. Or faces, as it were.
