Hi All,

Just intro'ing myself to the forum. I own a 1974 Austin Mini 1000, done to look like a cooper of its time :ohno: Her name is Norah :grin: because she's an old girl who's had a face lift and a blue rinse :grin:

Can anyone help me out with where to find mini dealers / specialists in and around Kent? I know of Sevenoaks Minis, and GC Minis in Swanley... can anyone tell me what these places are like?

Thanks guys!


Ian

Hi mate.

Welcome to the site, as CB said there are a fair few mini guys in the south east. I'm near canterbury, and theres i few guys in faversham that post regularly.

Mini specialists?

Theres a garage at manston who some recommend, the owners a bit grumpy, but they sell loads of bits and can be useful.

I have good links to Darlington where mini-machine are based who are excellent.

Anyway have fun on here.
