The running gear might well be Mini, but it's not a Mini.

PMSL

knowone can get it so........

ok it it something called a MINUS, it is 3" lower than a standard mini, and weighs around 70+kg less as a shell, it is also made completey from GRP meaning it is very very light, and 115bhp makes it feel like a space ship

it is registerd as a MINIUS, and not recognised as a mini in any form of documentation

So which was which?

Was the Minus the one with the chop below the window and the Sprint the one with some above AND below the window, or the other way round?

I can never remember
