I have a fully restored 1962 Morris Mini Minor Mk 1 850. I drove the car to the Mossel Bay Wheels Gathering and won a floating trophy for Organisers and Peoples Choice. I would like to join a classic Mini club in Johannesburg to share my experiences and attend gatherings and runs.

Hi everyone,

I recently purchased a 1978 Mini Clubman. I didn't need another vehicle (having 3 garages of bikes and cars already) but a friend offered me it at a ridiculous price and the opportunity was too good to be missed on.

Look forward to meeting other Mini owners based in Johannesburg in the future.

Hi guys, 
Had my car painted and now I need to fit a new roof linner.
I want to replace all the window rubbers while we do the roof linner.
Any local suppliers? 
Also has any one had luck replacing the rubber and felt on the door weather strips. I have the strips the rubber and felt is just old the crome parts are still good. Looks like a easy fix if you can find the corect rubber.
Any advise ?

So as some have seen on facebook, i have purchased a mini GTS, its a 1978 model with first registration 01/01/1979.

Theres a few gremlins hiding around the mini, but i will be slowly sorting them out one by one.




I managed to get the original rings for the gauges and gave them a bit of paint so they look a bit better.

Hi Guys, can anyone recommend a panelbeater who has undertaken the Sportspack arch fit? Don't fancy the learning curve! Fitting rear means cutting double skin bodywork, front single skin

Can anyone recommend a paint to use on brake calipers?

Also, if I don't paint them and leave them "raw" will they rust up pretty quickly? 

I have just used a silver duplicolour brush-on paint on one of my calipers but I'm really unhappy with the finish. Might well be that the paint is expired - I bought it "new" a couple of months ago but noticed after applying it to one caliper that it was made back in 2013 so must have been sitting on the shelf for ages.

The paint didn't mix up easily, was pretty thick and lumpy and was not easy to apply. I probably should have guessed at that stage that there was a problem but thought I'd give it a bash anyway.

Hi guys,
My mini needs new brakes and would like to buy a new master cylinder and complete all around slave cylinders.Really tired of replacing seals on the old parts.
Anyone out there that has a contact no. 
I have heard there are local shops that supply these parts?
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Heinrich.
