Find of the Year 2022: the candidates

One of the traditions after almost 13 years of Maximum Mini online (!) has become the election of the 'Find of the Year'. Many barn-, shed-, garden- and field-finds have come along since day one and I've selected another five cool discoveries for this year's voting. 

As every year: to vote simply drop a message below or send me an e-mail if you like. The car with the most votes wins the prestigious title 'Maximum Mini Find of the Year 2022'. So... over to the 5 candidates:


Rare Mk1 Stimson Mini Bug, one-family owner since the early 1980s

Unbuilt TiCi in the USA with links to some great Mini motoring heritage

    I'm torn between the camber and the unipower, but i think the unipower has to get it just because I always wanted one.

    Although the Unipower is the holy grail, but I really like the Tici!

    As soon as I saw the five Maximum Mini’s listed above, I knew most people would vote for the Unipower gt. I get it, we would all really love a Muria/DB5 ect.. and for most of us the Unipower now falls into this un-affordable bracket.

    Of course I would like one…. But putting my sensible hat on and re-reading all the articles again, my vote goes to the Mk1 Stimson Mini Bug. A nice story of a family who loves it for all of its odd-ball-ness.
