The MkI Mini was the first iteration of BMC’s ubiquitous Mini model. Characterised by sliding windows, external door hinges and "moustache" grille, a revolution at the time was it's transverse engine and front wheel drive, allowing for a spacious cabin in a small shell. The MkI was produced between 1959 and 1967 at the Longbridge Plant near BMC's headquarters, with production in Australia continuing until 1970.

A rare survivor with no modern upgrades and wearing it's original registration number, with a believed genuine c.83,000 miles on the odometer, FOX 959D is understood to have covered no more than 500 miles since 1992. In current ownership since 2011, it has been MOT'd and serviced every year since. Unusually, the early history is present with copies of the Registration Of Sale dated 2 May 1966, BMC Maintenance Voucher (1966), After Sales Service at 982 miles (26 May 1966), 3000 mile service by BMC Service Dept, 6000 miles service receipt by Austin Motor Co Ltd etc. on file. Copies of servicing invoices from Caldy Auto Repair of West Kirby are also present from 2014 to 2025. This unmolested example is offered with the above historic paperwork, invoices since 2011, two reels of chrome trimming, current MOT to September 2026 and Swansea V5C.
