Post subject:  Mini Suppliers
I have been reading around here for a while now and I see all you guys talking about this mini place and that mini place and all this type of thing. So if it is possible can I get a list of all the good mini places people have dealt with as I only know of one. If you can give me that name of the place, the location, website and phone number etc it would be great, or just any information that you may have. I live in QLD but any places would help since you can get stuff posted. I just have never known of many places. If you don't want to put them up here then just pm me. But it would be great to find out some good places to deal with who have good prices. Thanks

Karcraft in Silverwater, Sydney is good. Most Sydney peeps buy from there. I use Heritage MG/Mini in Smithfield, Sydney. Pretty good prices and they ship same day.

The two combined would get you anything Mini.

Do a Google search for their details.

And he's a nice bloke...Comes highly recomended on my behalf. Been buying stuff from him (fairly infrequently) for about 7 years. It's worth a trip out to his place just to admire the joint. I often visit in the hope that some of his mini wisdom will rub off. :oops:

Matty (TheMiniMan himself or Matthew as referred to by his father) is no too bad either. Sold me a nice front cut today. :lol:

Haven't Mini Pro Move from Wynnum.

Also try Mini Maina at Yamanto
Mini Spares Bundaberg 07 41551909 That my local Bloke he good can be a little dear on some things but cheaper on others. He has Good Knowledge too.

Also look on the Mini club website as they tend to advertise Mini Spare Places.

Thanks guys that is heaps of good places to choose from by the sounds of it. Shouldn't have any problem finding things now. I like using the place I already have as they are great guys but I wanted some more so I can get more prices and well who ever does the better deal gets the business basically. Thanks again for all your help.

It shouldn't always be that the cheaper person gets the deal.
If you shop at one place, the price will average it's self out. But you will gain
extra knowledge and tips as you shop more.
eg.. if you shop somewhere once you will get the part, if it's your local guy where you normally shop, you will get the part, bolts to fit(maybe), and some tips about how to fit it.
