Hi everyone,

Just got my first mini on Sunday. I am now the proud owner of a 1996 Mini Cooper 1.3i Sport. It is a nightfire red with white roof and white bonnet stripes. It also has a Fletcher DTM twin SS exhaust. So if any one can give me a few tips on where to get work done or cheap parts locally. I would be very grateful. I look forward to hearing from you all soon.

Martin.

Hi Martin,
Welcome to TMF. I could do some work for you if you need any doing, I own a body shop just outside cricklade but we will do anything mini. Please feel free to pop down & have a chat sometime.

Welcome to the world of mini's! will keep an eye out for you.

Come along to our next meeting at the Kingsdown arms, Stratton on 7th September at 8pm and say hi!

As for work, Frog is definitley someone to consider. All the work I have seen come out of his shop has been of a very high standard
