The coolant pipes on my Mini's engine must be nearly 30 years old. So i thought a nice set of new silicone hoses would be a good idea.

The trouble is all the hose sets seem to have the brand name printed on them every couple of inches.

Does anyone know of a set of hose for the Mini that isn't splattered with the brand name?

The Samco Classic hoses only has the brand embossed in one or two spots.

nothing worse than a car with the blue pipes everywhere, or the name on the pipes, i think its looks stupid.

 

Id just buy some good standard new ones afterall the others lasted 30 years.

Have a look at these, choice of finishes and no logos. https://classicsilic...roduct-options/

I bought a set of unbranded blue silicone hoses off eBay (sorry Avtovaz😁) for about £60. They were actually well made, fitted the SPI manifold, radiator pump etc. ok and had no logos.

they are well made, i have black ones on my rally car, but the reason for that was i put a volvo engine into it and i could not get standard pipes!
