Im trying to find a unipart GWW916 washer bottle my old one is really mankey and I would like a new one, went to my local unipart dealer who checked and said its a deleted item, he suggested I try putting mine in the dishwasher to try and bring it back a bit.
Does anyone know of any new ones still around?

Ebay and autojumble at shows are going to be your best bet.

Look for part number GWW906 (1ltr) and GWW918 (older mk1/2 sort) you'll find them on both minispares and moss-europe

Bought one for £4 at Stoneleigh this weekend! Bloke wanted to charge me a fiver because it still had the sticker on it!!

All the Mini specialists and classic car places should still sell it, just 'because Unipart don't list it doesn't mean no-one makes it any more. As Guessworks says try Moss Europe or Minispares, also try Holden Vintage and Classic or Europa Specialist Spares.

This is the kind of item that seperates the real Mini specialists from Mini Speed and Huddersfield.

Ok managed to get one sorted from c & s parts listed in mini world mag, just rang as they saidthey had everything and did. Got the bottle and lid and some mainifold heat wrap (which was £15) for £28 posted. So the bottle and lid was about £10.
They also have a huge catalogue with about 700 pages that they will send you for free.

received the washer bottle today and suprise suprise its not the right one, its the 906 one which is double the size and wont fit, and insult to injury when I asked for the total of the order and was told £29 this was apparently without the £9.95 postage, whats the point in asking for a total then!!!

My local breakers always have 5-10 mini's breaking at any one time, i think they post stuff too.

The bloke's son races mini's and they have 3 or 4 containers full of stuff stripped from modded cars and piles of standard parts... Ask for andy, if he's not there, most of the stuff in on their computer inventory.
