The Electric Classic Mini 'Merlin' is a masterpiece of design, blending classic aesthetics with modern flair.

Adding to its distinctive British character, a striking red, white, and blue stripe, reminiscent of the Union Jack, elegantly runs just left of the centreline.

A significant highlight of Merlin's exterior is its meticulously crafted 12" wheels. These wheels are not just functional; they are a style statement, painted to match the body colour and finished with a single black pinstripe around the rim. This subtle yet striking detail adds a layer of sophistication and uniqueness to the vehicle's overall appearance. The wheels are fitted with Yokohama A539 tyres, renowned for their stability and grip, ensuring that Merlin's ride is as confident as it is stylish. 

 

Enhancing its vintage charm are the wavy front grille and Mk1 style bumper overriders and corner bars, both front and rear, which add a touch of classic elegance. The P700 headlights, notable for their
tri-pointed star design, illuminate the path ahead, marrying traditional style with modern functionality. This thoughtful combination of design elements ensures that the Electric Classic Mini 'Merlin' is not just a mode of transportation, but a moving piece of art, ready to turn heads and capture hearts on every road it graces.
