Top 10: Classic Minis
I bought an 11 month old Mini Van in 1962 for £280, they were free of purchase tax when new at only £360, a new Mini was £496 at the time. It was very cold in the winter and the sliding side windows used to frost over and freeze up making visibility at junctions quite difficult. After about 30,000 miles I traded it in against a1963 Hillman Imp, the worst car I have ever owned.
Apart from tyres and exhausts the Mini Van cost me very little.

Minis the real old proper Mini before BMW ruined them are blimming getting more expensive by the day , I think it's because they fit nicely tucked away in an garage where you find yourself with some room left over for a work bench and a punching bag.
