SUMMARY
Delightful little Mk2 from 46-year family ownership prior to our vendor, with a magazine featured restoration.
DESCRIPTION
- Purchased new on 17/11/1969 by 60-year-old Mrs Millie Properjohns who decided to learn to drive in it
- Giving up driving at the age of 98, the car went into dry storage with less than 33,000 miles on the clock
- In 2015, the Mini was chosen by Lancaster Insurance to be restored by the MG Owners Club for eventual charity auction
- This high-profile, engine-out restoration was extensively documented by Classics Monthly in 2016
- Superbly refinished in its original Tartan Red and the original matching interior reinstated
- Bought by our vendor from Silverstone Auctions in November 2016, all proceeds went to Prostate Cancer UK
- The current odometer reading of 33,202 miles (at time of cataloguing) is corroborated by the original Service Book and known history
- Presented to auction with a V5C showing two former keepers, its original manuals and a published record of the restoration running to dozens of pages
