The service book still retains some service stamps and with its current ownership dating from 1989. The body has been prepared with a strengthened front subframe and looks every inch the rally car with its Cibie Oscar spot lamps. It wears four new Revolution 12" wheels with Yokohama tyres and is has two spare wheels.
Power is delivered from a 1293cc engine, with a 45" DCOE carburettor and straight-cut Jack Knight gears, providing a sound that evokes the memory of historic Mini racers.
