Yes we are leaving the mini scene...
we are still in business(don't believe rumours, ask me).
just getting rid of all our mini stock and moving on to other things.
I am getting rid of all my mini gear, cars, parts, books, merchandise etc.

Some of you will be getting an email soon with a specials list, or if you wish to recieve it please email me at [email protected]

Then my plan is to put things on ebay once, starting price is my reserve.
If it gets a bid, it sells. no matter the price or item.
There is too much stuff to list individually, but will try to do specials list as we work through all the stuff.
I would like our shop cleared out by christmas, and we are doing a dump run a week, so hurry if you want some bargains.
Steve
ps most of the Cooper S stuff has already gone

I will still be able to bring gear in from Japan, not getting out of the car industry. yet... hopefully our dollar recovers soon.
Our crash test car has passed, see how that goes.

We will be doing more with BMW mini's...
performance mods, parts, import parts.
along the same lines as what we do now, just a newer model.

Steve, not good to hear for the old Mini brigade but good luck with the new direction...please don't use a scrap metal skip if you can help it , it might be better to talk the local Mini clubs into taking the crappy stuff off your hands :idea: :D Cheers, Mick

There is 11 cars left... thats it.

As far as not going to the scrap pile is concerned... this is peoples warning that it is happening, i can't keep all this stuff on the hope that someone may need it. Come buy it, have a scrounge(you may find some goodies).It pains me to dump it, but i need to do something that makes a living, and is going to continue me into the future.
I'm not being nasty, just realistic... it's time for it to go.[/quote]
