    Have spotted a mini that has stolen my heart!!. The sign says 'offers' but I dont know how much its worth. Its a G Reg Thirty with 74k on the clock, Mot'd and Tax'd. Tried Parkers but no joy as its too old for the price check.

    Sy,

    all depends on the condition, especially if there is any rust on the panels.. That is where a lot of money can be eaten up.

    If the car is in good overall condition, then I would think it is worth £1k to £2k. I don't like "Offers" as it normally means they want a fortune, but are too embarrassed to put the price they want.. :)

    hope you get on OK...

    Maroon 30's are more desirable than black 30's so take that into account but like Craig said go round the car with a fine tooth comb. Go underneath and check sub frames and floor pans and sills and A panels and front panel and wings and the rear wheel arches and in the boot floor right at the back of the car.

    Poor 30's have been on ebay recently for about £800 but they need about £1500 anyway to get them decent. I watched a couple really nice maroon 30's last year and they made £3k.

    If you can have a good nosey round it, check the rear subframe, and get inside the rear parcel bins and check em out too - and in the boot, the metal under the boot lid especially.. if you don't know what to look for.. if you do.. ignore me!

    So was it a Black or Maroon?
    Would love to see some pictures of a Black one, as this is what I used to have
