well after doing the ring around I have found them to be quite good to deal with.

I am giving them my thumbs up.

Had a good old chat on the phone for nearly a hour..

They should have lots of new stuff in next month 80K worth of stuff coming. so look out for some good prices as buying in bulk there getting it for a good price.

So thanks Minisport.. New disk front end for evil and spax lowered gas adj shocks all round

:wink:

Ive bought a few things from Tony at Minisport. My wheel/tyre package I got from eBay was fantastic. My newly aquired arches I was a little disappointed in only because for the money I spent, I expected a lot better (especially considering that there were things on the Minisport website that say "more expensive arches fit better" and "you get what you pay for" kinda deal). I also looked into getting 8.5" discs from him and found him to be a little on the dear side in that area.

Having said that though, he is extremely helpful and excellent to deal with. Of all the Mini stores I contact, he is the fastest, most useful, and gives you his personal opinion where it counts. Top bloke.

Cody should have given me your list and I could have asked at Padstow on the discount day last Sunday.

I would have to admit though the guys in SA are good on the email questions and answers too..!!
