My minis a white Austin mini advantage, doubt he's worked on it though! And he didn't reply back again today, what a surprise! Well mini world just replied back to me, although obviously they can't slander any company, the editor wants to hear how saturday goes! *sigh*

I'd team up with mankee, he's had a judgement against them, grab as many people as you can and then go to the mags. Mini mag may be interested as well, I'll stick a link to this topic on their facebook wall.

Don't mean to state the obvious but it is not of much of a supprise that such an obnoxious ******* could not run a honest business. People really need to do there homework on this type of business before parting with their cash and cars as a lot of mini enthusiasts seem to think that running a business based on a passion and no skill or business knowledge will produce quality work.

Well he actually phoned me earlier, I'll be going up on Saturday as planned to see what's been done, and I'll be keeping a very close eye on the work. I just want my car up and running as he promised!!!!!! No more no less! I'm hoping with what has happened to others (not my place tO speculate) that some lessons have been learned! I'll keep u all updated! Oh and I've already spoke to the editor from mini mag 😊

It wouldn't surprise me in all fairness but if I was in his position I'd want to prove a point also! Afterall reputations can be mended in time, and positive feedback spreads! Let's hope ay?

We have our Mini with the guys at Midland Mini Clinic, but tried to get in touch with them today for an update and found a) their website down ...

is the fifth search result, but when I click the link, it redirects to a different random post in a different random thread on the forum every time.

The google listing isnt updated yet, it will take time. However on my search, we come second and its a direct link to the first post on this topic. Once google updates and re indexes the forum, it should update the title on google and increase its position in search results.

The more we spread the word, the more likely it is for people to find this topic and stay away from midlands mini clinic.

He must be watching this thread because he has now deleted me off Facebook ;)

Let's hope things change for the better and everyone gets their cars back "OK" and money refunded

Getting closer to D-day! 2013 really isn't my year, already!! Sisters really ill and this on top! So much stress, really hope he sticks to his word! To be fair his sites down so doubtful many will be going there for business unless he sets something else up, doubt it will be called midlands mini clinic though

But as I've stated, sometimes u just never no! People can and do make mistakes! This will be his chance to rectify it! And as I've also said, reputations can be mended! I like to give people the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise!
