Mint as defined by the OED;

• (a mint) informal a large sum of money.

• adjective in pristine condition; as new.

Since its SO not the second, he must be referring to the large sum of money he's asking - LOL.

Lovely car though - I would give it garage room for £500. My GLT cost me £150 and with the bits I've done to it, it's still a cheap car compared to this one !

Would have had steel wheels originally, but that's a minor objection.

Unless the coronas were bought when the car was new, as an accessory....

Hideous body and interior colour too! And only a DL!
Perhaps the owner went on a spending spree with the accessories and wants to make some money back!

Yeah I thought the idea of a DL was to have less frills and this car has more stuff on it than a xmas tree!!

Puchased my car 3 years ago, much better car as well! It was the blue one with tan leather on Ebay (Remember - prob not) UNDER a grand!!!! Asking OVER 5, may as well be over 10. I have seen mint 850 T-5 R's go for the same - - and they r unique!
