hiya, my minis a mess, he's my every day car and does loads of miles and il never sell him.
The original plan was a new shell and then just respray and transfer engine and interior but i cant afford that for a while. So does anybody know any good mini people who can chop out all the rust, add new panels and respray it properly?
I used a resto place in Cheshire 5yrs ago and the paint job was rubbish, i had to go back 3 times in ayear as the 2pac got air bubbles.
My budgets about 3k which is abit more than last time as I want to get a nicer finish, thanks folks Smile

Hi Carly, i had a word with my boss and he said he'd struggle to do it within your budget, what with the cost of panels, paint materials labour etc.
Sorry i couldn't really help Sad
