My father does not wish to travel to London to got to Mini Sport, Londons too far for a quick trip to sort the mini out.

I quite understand your dad not wanting to go to London to go to Minisport. They are just outside Blackburn (that's more or less Manchester by the way). :grin:

When you say to 'sort the mini out' is this for a tune-up or something?
If you don't mind a little drive up towards the M25 you will find MLM in Knockholt. They are s**t-hot Mini tuners. Make very good engines and a very good garage service. They don't sell much parts 'n stuff though.

Hi, I've just left a reply to your 'wanted' post.

If you can get all the parts you need for your exhaust via mail order then it is fairly easy to fit yourself. You can take it from me a virtual newbie to motor mechanics, it'll probably take a good day messing about.

Alternatively give Manna Hutte in Ramsgate a ring. Don't know the number off hand but I'll post it a bit later.

Or if you fancy a drive to Dover with your parts I don't mind helping out! Due to family and work commitments I only have one Friday out of four free when I would definately be able to help unfortunately. Let me know, I should be able to sort other days depending on commitments.
