She wasnt in a great state
Most of the time over christmas was spent sanding down and patching up the bodywork, as any mini owner will tell you, rust is a major problem, exaggerated by the original home of the car - the seaside! Anyway, it was all worth it, cos for at least a few months, the P38 easy sand filler will stay on the shelf :)
