Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description:

Whilst many post-war, recovering economies developed an iteration of the peoples car, few could boast the ingenuity, panache and unbridled charm of Issigoniss Mini. Given this, it is perhaps little wonder that the Minis popularity and production life far outlasted pretty much all of its contemporaries. It even went on to inspire a hugely successful reinvention model under BMWs auspices. Sir Alec would be justifiably proud. This example is gem. The Minis verve and character just begged for further modification and this example is a proud exemplar of that approach. It has been thoughtfully and intelligently improved twice in its life and has managed to add a thrilling extra dimension to that already magical Mini recipe. The highlight of this specialist work by Minimaster was the fitting of 1,380cc engine with a Swiftune Level 3 Road Rocket head and a SW5 Hi-Lift kit. It ready to be loved and enjoyed.
