I got it off EBAY £11.50 and that includes postage and packing

At the risk of making myself look like a rivet-counter, I've just noticed that the box advertises a Mk II, whereas the shell has internal door hinges of a Mk3 on, and the quaterlight mouldings of an Innocenti !!! Have to say, it looks quite accurate though, especially that floor-pan.

Cheers, Neil

Was it a private sale or company, as I have been trying to find a Mini-Countryman.

One of my goals is to build a model of all the modified cars I have built & owned.

If it is a company they may have some of what I require.

Hi Neil the door hinges are attached to the body shell in the back window space View attachment 75745

There's a paper plan on the instructions to help you put them in the right place

 

[1275GT]

Lol, so they are....that'll teach me to look before I type !!!

Despite the rather comic book box art the kit looks very nice. The panel line around the door looks like it will be possible to open the door up, can it. Will you?
