No boots on CVs so I wouldn't go putting them straight into a car without a total tear down of all components and thorough clean proir to re-assembly and installation.

Technically, if these brakes were to be fitted to a mini they would require engineering,
as they aren't the factory parts.

Not only are those brakes similar to the ones that were in my car - I think they actually ARE the ones that were in my Mini!!

I sold my engine & Brakes to a Glen at Springwood - he must've decided to go original.

I can vouch for these - they never let me down, a they'll just about put you through the windscreen!!!

Hello,

Engineering definitely required by law on these. Failing to do so will void your insurance and could very well put you in debt for the rest of your life, if you have an accident.

It is fine for one to say "they stop great", but you must think beyond a cheap thrill when dealing with your life and livelihood.

I wonder what the legalities are for selling these without an engineers' certification?

Iain.
