Hello Ausmini

A mate of mine (chris) and myself (Lindsay) have just taken over Bellarine Mini Centre, now called Geelong British Spares and moved to Lara. Those of you who were customers of Bellarine Mini Centre will have most likely met me before as I worked part time for Peter for about two years. We are mainly going to be selling parts for MGs and MINIs while also offering a workshop service, however we are happy to cater for all english cars where possible. As former Bellarine Mini Centre customers may know I also was responsible for sourcing new and used mini parts from the UK for Bellarine Mini Centre, I have now contacted all my previous contacts in the UK and hope to offer some great Mini parts soon at acceptable prices. I will keep the AUSMINI forum up to date with our latest products.

Do you still feature the computerised hydro pump?

It's pretty advanced :!:

How can one purchase parts from your business?

Through an online website / store?

Overinflated prices via eBay?

Phone?

Print catalogue?

The name change is due to us also offering competition parts and serviceing/repairs for MG and other british makes. The Bellarine Mini Centre name limited our market. All enquiries can either be made through the AUSMINI website or I and be contacted on 0431031822.
