Why are you factoring work you'll never do into buying these? It's your first car, you aren't going to do anything but put cheap rice shit on it from Vato Zone of Pepe Boys.

On the assumption that you're American, where the fuck are you going to find a classic Mini for $5k?

go back to /y/
The eg will be the fastest stock, will be the cheapest to make faster , assuming you drop a k20 in there or a b18. Either way, both cars will require an engine swap.
>mini parts
>rare
you're fucking retarded you can literally buy EVERYTHING for a mini, new panels new shells new everything. The only things that are some what tricky are like mk1 cooper s heaters and some specific australian model only shit. apart from that legit anything can be ordered.
source: i own a fucking mini.
S13.

He's american.
I highly doubt he'll be able to even find a MK1, much less for $5k and be able to get shit for it locally

minis in merrica are mad expensive since they only imported them for like 2 years, good luck finding a cooper s for under 40k, all the parts come out of the uk though, we order them to our door step in australia.
get da s13 bruh
>5k
>rust
>automatic

>slower than a civic
I really don't get the appeal

Mini are an will forever be over priced, over hyped fwd shit boxes.
Honda sadly suffers from "its a ricer" also trashed
S-chassis Nissan is well probably trashed worse then the Honda.
So, get yourself a 2nd Gen Camaro. Your an American, an by not buying American you not being AMERICAN
