Looks fun, but that's a lot of money for a modified car with non original engine. That much for a nice original numbers matching car sure. Or am I really out of touch with today's prices?

Finished in red with an ever-appropriate Union Jack on the roof, this 1966 Austin Mini is said to be a real Cooper S, though whose powerplant has been bored out to 1380cc.
The listing explains, however, that the upgraded engine and suspension are not original to the car.
Available for $27,999, this 1966 Austin Mini Cooper S can be found at Mosing Motorcars.

Adrian - the price isnt out of line for a modified mini, but seems pretty strong for this one - terrible paint and almost everything 'S' is missing. Some nice bits on it, but the pop riveted body number tag def causes concern.
In reply to TinBox :
Wow, that's shocking but thanks for the update. Old guy hat on, I remember when a ten year old rust free Mini's were all £500 all day long.
Real Mini Coopers have gotten so expensive, probably because they have such worldwide appeal.
