Just in case any one stumbles across this this thread…I finally got my car back in July ‘22….9 Years later.
Super sh!t experience.
Lots of parts missing (original and new)
Paint has blisters in places
Continuously making excuses and breaking promises.
Finally drew a line and took the car back.

I too have just rescued my mini from Fusion.
Four years wasted. Panels paid for which are nowhere to be seen.
Absolute crook.

Mine is still there….

 

I too have been super super busy with life etc and been unable to check on it due to location….

 

I will have to take a visit this week…

 

How was it getting it back? I left mine there with boxes full of heritage parts to get fitted and both subframes…

 

really worried now!

You need to get up there ASAP.

 

Paul has been kicked out of the unit for not paying his rent.

 

I finally got my car back from the guy who has taken over the unit when I said I didn’t want him to do the rest of the work on it. Understandably he didn’t want it cluttering up then workshop after that.

 

I haven’t seen a clubman in the workshop when I’ve visited over the last year or so, but I did see a complete shell with lots of surface rust on the racking outside.

 

How long has yours been there?
