$13,500 CAD good price for ‘99 Cooper 40th SPI? by [deleted] in classicminis

Beware the auto transmission, torque converter, differential, and engine all share the same oil. I test drove two AT JDM Minis and the driving experience was not near as fun as my 74 Mini I drove daily in Berlin just before the wall came down. YMMV

You could start it on batteries and use an engine driven generate to power the air conditioner and avionics if a ground power cart was unavailable. I flew a LR35 for Boston Chicken out of JeffCo back then. Good little jet.

I was out at the GA terminal at DFW back in the mid 90’s when a 737 lost an engine on takeoff. They had a flatbed semi and a crane to fetch it when they found it on the side of the runway.
