AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

IN RISALTO
* Equipped with Garanzia Conformità Federperiti expertise
* MK1 first series "long gear lever" produced by Innocenti
* Fully restored original colors and factory engine
* With Bologna birth black plates
* Original 848 cc engine
* Delivered new in Italy

STORIA / PANORAMA
The Mini Morris 850 MKI is a revolutionary compact designed to offer maximum cabin space and a bright driving experience in extremely compact dimensions, thanks to innovative solutions such as front-wheel drive and transverse engine.

The example offered at auction is from 1966, belonging to the first MKI series with the famous long gear lever, and has been restored in the past while maintaining the original configuration. It is equipped with its factory 848 cc engine and is presented in the characteristic Medio Green color, enriched by the chromes and details typical of the series.

EXTERIOR
The bodywork presents in the original Medio Green color, with a paint finish restored in the past by the previous owner and today in good overall condition with only minimal signs of use and time.

The chromes are shiny and in good condition, as are the various original details of the car. A recent polishing and detailing treatment has been completed.

The underbody is in solid overall condition and was restored a few years ago; it is road-legal.

INTERIOR
The interiors are in good overall condition and in original configuration, with rare details such as the dashboard, the steering wheel and distinctive features of the first series. A modification with hazard switch buttons was installed during the restoration. The door panels are in beautiful condition as is the dashboard and all rare details. The headliner is also in good overall condition and retains the original features.

A sanitization treatment of the cabin has been recently completed.

MECHANICS
Mechanically, the car has its birth motor as per the engine code in the logbook, original 848 cc, well functioning: the clutch and gears work correctly, as do the brakes, and the technical inspection was passed in December 2024 with no defects found, valid until December 2026. The previous owner used the car normally and it is in good standing for road circulation and use, however a normal general service check before regular use is always recommended, especially for long distances.

This 1966 Innocenti 850 MKI, first series, represents a particularly interesting example for its original configuration and Italian history. The original delivery in Italy, the Bologna black plates, the factory original engine and Medio Green typical color make this beautiful Mini a rare car.

Disclaimer

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
