Hi all, I've just moved to Brisbane after a fairly long stint down south and am after a bit of local knowledge.

I was wondering where the best places in Bris are to get my min worked on. I am after someone that knows webers as the runble bee is rumbling a bit too much, and smells of petrol so i think it is a bit rich at the moment.

All help appreciated.

Cheers

These details (in the above link) are not correct since he moved:

Glen Carpenter's Mini Mart
12/32 Jijaws Street
Sumner Park Qld 4074
(07) 33768426

So...
Give Madd Matt a call. His sig is totally true... He does seem to build a good motor.

Yep,

Anyone in Brisbane want to know who the best mini mechanics are, send me or TK a pm. We are NOT allowed to say bad things about mechanics in public, so I am limited to telling Fruity, "Be careful."

Hint Hint

:wink:

Hey, I posted incorrect details and didn't offer the new details even though I know them. 8)

If you want parts or advice regarding a Rover mini and you are in Brisbane I still reckon you are best served by calling Steve at Brickworx, even though he is about 2x the length of the UK away.

Welcome to bris stainless. Make sure you give us a wave if you see any of us, or well chase you and throw stuff at you :lol:
The drive to the west is worth it for the work and service you'll receive.
Is that cryptic enough to get around the ausmini rules.

Yep, on the basis that I haven't heard bad stories I would go to Mini Automotive aswell.

Matt Read is a great guy though, and really helpful. Depends where you live I guess.
