    420Kg Mini Maguire 1360 || Spaceframed Classic Hatchback - Retro Rides 2018

    420Kg Mini Maguire 1360 || Spaceframed Classic Hatchback - Retro Rides 2018

    As we show more of the Guest Cars we had on the event we helped organize this year ( Retro Rides Gathering 2018) we now arrive at a quite special little thing. The super lightweight Mini Maguire 1360 of Derek Kessell. Considered by many the Ultimate "pure" Mini, as although it is a spaceframed chassis, it uses largely just British Leyland parts, coupled with a bored BMC engine, with 1360cc and producing 140Hp. Coupling that with the extraordinarily low weight of 420Kg, makes for a very impressive, super agile Hillclimb machine. That such a simple and old design is still so effective just proves how much of a winning concept the Original Mini was. And it certainly deserves to be celebrated.
