Original Mini - 1987 Austin Advantage - Revs/Preview

Eventually i will have better quality videos of my Minis up. Christine is one of two original Minis i own. She is a 1987 Austin Advantage. 2500 were made for the UK and another 2000 were made for the worldwide market. Since money is tight for the moment i haven't been able to spend any money on either of the cars so currently they both remain standard with no engine upgrades or body kits.

@TopGearrules Will do, they will be with me all the way. Yes i did some research and apparently there's only something like 169 left on the road? I don't know whether that's just in the UK or worldwide though. Look after your Mayfair. :)
