I know this is the wrong section and moderators will move it BUT this metro turbo seems too good to scrap even if it's not exactly a conventional mini.
It has been listed in the "Trading Post etc" section where very few might see it.
Nobody was interested in buying it as a complete car; now it's up for parts.
If I didn't have 3 minis, a wife and a very small pension, I'd consider it.

it does seem too good to scrap, but if the guy wants to get rid of it, and no-one wants to buy it then what's he gonna do...

it's a cool looking little car, and looks quite modern, but the engine bay photos just don't suit it at all - I expect to see a sweet looking twin cam thing in there, but it's a mini engine - just doesn't look right to me

Not to mention EL GT Falcon, XY wagon, and another mini in the garage too? Bill, I expect he's in as similar position as yourself!
