Hello and Welcome

Now there's a head scratcher for you! Do you have a South African version of our English Auto Trader magazine by any chance?
 
lol yip head scratcher looking for 96 model specifically, wont mind getting the hands dirty to drop in a cooper S engine in it. for tha AUTO trader those books are relocated all over the country can be found anywer especially at a garage
 
As you're in South Africa your chances of finding one are slim but there are some are over there, a big plus side is that when you do find one, it'll be a nice clean shell with no rust in it. Another option would be to import one from another country, I know there are a lot in Australia which is also a dry state so no tin worm there either, good luck with the search anyway, why is it you're after a 96 model specifically?
 
Welcome and a great choice of car. Every petrolhead should own an original Mini at some point in their lives. I've had six I think, maybe more and used to race them many years ago, great fun and my last one was a tuned up 25th Anniversary model.
