It did sell for £11.500.
A consortium of three bought it. They are still deciding what to do with it as regards restoration.
One of the options is to preserve it in the condition it is in at the moment, but stop it rusting any more.
I don't think a nut and bolt restoration will be done.
Still cheap at that price though.

For the 8th Mini its probably actually a really good price, but part sourcing would be fun..

	Any one can restore a classic but it takes a real man to cut one up
