Copying is the sincerest form of flattery :)

When it comes to Minis, I think you should be very clever NOT to copy someone. The've all been done..

IMO, it could be worth more than 2.5K.
I mean, look at the engine bay - that is tidy; you can draw colclusions about the rest of the mini from that.
eg - original floors (rather than bodge-job oversills or crappy cover-all floor-pans)? Solid, Bog-free a-panels? I'd say possibly, but if it did, i'd say so in the auction...

If you've a certain expectation / standards, and have seen enough of the many poorly built examples out there, you begin to understand how some examples are justifyably more expensive than others (that look very similar... *wink* *wink* *wink* ).
