They are not Mini specific, it is a matter of the right size and the right temp.
A Chev V8 uses the same thermostat as a Mini and so do a lot of other cars.

Hello Guys, Mini is running hot, i think cooling system needs a good flush and a new thermostat, will this one do the job? http://www.minisport.com.au/prod131.htm Can you get these form Repco or are they specific to the mini? Thanks JB |

Thanks JB Yep, that'll do but if your engine is running hot then it's probably not the thermostat. Give it a good flush, clean the radiator and then think about changing the thermostat. Repco et al probably won't have a Mini thermostat in stock, but they'll order one. |

Ok, thanks... Car has been sitting for a while so it could be just a matter of a clean but i would like to be safe as my worst fear is car over heating... After clean i think a new rad cap and thermostat are in order |

Supercheap stock the mini thermo's on shelf, look for the 1-180 thermo.
