Hello - Would anyone have a photo or drawing showing the 4 correct lifting points in one picture under a Mini when using a workshop lifting hoist?

 

When getting a WOF (warrant of fitness) every 6 months in NZ, you can clearly see that the garage who has been doing the WOF in the past have not always used the correct lifting spots. I want to keep a picture showing the correct lifting points in the car to show them before they do the next WOF - cheers

You don’t want to show them the official Rover points as they are not really right.

 

The subframes are the best places.

This video may help you to make a diagram.

Thanks for the info and yes, I should be able to make something up from the video showing the lifting points. I'm surprised that BMC or Rover did not have a drawing or photo in their service manuals showing this, however not to worry.

They do. But you don’t want to use them.

Here they are anyway. From the MPi manual.

Ok, I see what you mean - thanks
