I have raced against that Minor in the CSCC Special Saloon series. The car is beautifully built and pretty quick too, just needs more use.
I believe it is for sale as Chris doesn't have time to race it, quite a large price tag (£30k) but worth it I think bearing in mind the standard off preparation.

Looking at the preparation and components used I suspect the construction costs far exceeded the £30k being asked.

Just seems a lot when you can get a nice Lotus twin cam for that money :D

No doubt you can - but that misses the point in that it would not be a Minor 8)

That may be so but if given the choice I would opt for the Comp Minor every time.
Anyway if you look closely you can see at least 5% :wink: remaining of the original Minor and it is of a Minor profile which must be a bonus.
Everyone to their own. 8)
