Ritey Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Mini supplies come in the form of: www.minispares.com www.minispeed.co.uk www.minisport.com http://www.minispares-online.co.uk/ and assuming its a non tuned beastie like my mini, good old unleaded will do, regardless of whether its had a head done, although I'd have an educated guess that its got an unleaded head on it. If your concerned or intend to do 50,000 miles on it on unleaded i'd suggest perhaps some lead additive found in any decent petrol station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulkbear Posted July 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Great, just what i wanted to know. I am going to look at two, a 1985 mini Mayfair 998cc and a 1988 Mini Red Hot, but i am not going to driving them much (6,3 and a lard arse) just doing it for profit. Both of them are showing the usual signs of rot (battery tray, sills, A pillar and front end) but i getting both cars for around £600 with loads of spares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritey Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Sounds like a deal, specially as your handy with a spanner, and I hope a welder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
