I'm currently hunting for my first mini and have spotted one over in Hallett Cove SA that looks like it has potential. Unfortunately, I'm based near to Melbourne. The current owner is happy to have the car inspected by a specialist prior to a potential in person viewing so I am looking for any recommendations, especially from those who may have used them for a similar purpose.

Using the search function, I did come across the Mini Businesses thread, however I am unsure how current all of these may be. CarCraft Services looks promising but is almost an hour from Hallett Cove and the owner is selling due to health problems making it difficult to use the car, so I'm worried it may be a bit far to suggest.

Is anyone able to recommend something a bit closer?

Thanks :D

I didn't realise that they had a workshop! I'll give them a call tomorrow to discuss.

Thanks for the pointer!

Years back I bought my S from SA and Minisport were a huge help in fixing any issues before I brought the car into NSW. They were also able to help confirm some of the cars history from years back as they had worked on it in the past. Good people.

Their details in the Mini Businesses are out of data, but correct on their website.
