Hi All
Having bought an auto by mistake (seriously, it was really poorly advertised) I've decided I just cannot get on with it. It's a shame because it's a cracking engine, I was told the box had been rebuilt but have nothing to prove that, it's certainly very shiny and seems to change as it should!
We have a suspicion it's actually a metro engine but unless you're an expert I don't think you would know the difference, I certainly didn't!
Engine is in Nottingham and still in the car being driven around so you can try it, will take me a day or so if you decide to have it to pull it from the car. Subframe and anything else auto you want (pedal box and gear linkage) will come with it.
Offers around £500 mark.
Daniel

Hi Daniel
I too am in Nottinghamshire. I have a lovely Mini Tahiti auto which has only covered 28000 miles. Howver the box will now only move forward when locked in 3rd gear.
I am looking to replace the box and would like to know if your engine/box is still available?
Cheers
Jon

Hi Jon , it appears Minibertie has,nt been on here since he advertised last year. You may be better looking elsewhere. Try putting in the wanted ads. Does your car only have drive in (3rd) gear?.
