Hi,
The MINI Cooper 1.6 I'm selling is in excellent condition, no damage, no engine problems, garage kept, HPI clear (no finance,no accidents) and it will come with all the needed documents!
I am selling this MINI Cooper 1.6 for £1,340.00 including delivery anywhere in UK. I also have to tell you that I'm currently out of town with some major problems so pick up/view isn't an option right now. However, before any delivery can be done I want to be sure that we do this transaction in the safest mode possible for both of us. I recommend we do the transaction using eBay.co.uk because it's a reliable market place and I'm a very experienced seller there. eBay will act as a 3rd party between you -as the buyer- and me -as the seller- so we can be both protected. This way you'll have a chance to view and test the MINI Cooper 1.6 before any money will be given to me; If you want to buy this MINI Cooper 1.6 email me back with your full name and address to start the official procedure on eBay. Once the requested details will be provided, eBay will contact you with ALL the info regarding delivery, purchase protection, and refund policy so please provide your details. You will find 90% of answers in the info eBay will send you. Will wait to hear from you.
Thank you!
P.S : If you want more pictures of the car please let me know and I will email them to you

I sent him an email back saying I too worked out of the country in a small food shop in Nigeria, and that the car was for my brother in Aberdeen, I specialise in online transfers and would be a pleasure to deal with... No reply yet!
