Hi everyone.

My name is Matt and I have a 1989 mini mayfair. I got it many years ago at the age of 16 and built it with my father to look like the below pics. I enjoyed many years in it and unfortunatly the gearbox packed in and it was parked.

University took over and as such the car has not moved and is in a very sorry state.

Im now living in Scotland and making preperations to bring it over from Northern Ireland and begin the restoration.

Thank you.

Thanks Ethel.

Any other mini owners from Scotland? Wondering if there are any clubs?

Thank you

Hi Matt, nice to hear of another mini making a comeback.  Based on your location I'd suggest a search for the "Mini Clan". I think they're a fairly active group you could get involved with.

There's loads around - nothing to say you can't join them all.
