Does anyone have a model number or something so I can get a price on a new Gemini starter motor, or would I be better off with a new mini starter motor?

My Gemini starter motor cost me $150 (brand new - trade price). If you are geting one from a non-Mini place or wreckers, make sure it is the right model Gemini starter, as not all models will fit.

If you want a new pre-engaged starter, I'd get one designed for it.
`Revolution' HMG815, $165 approx from Heritage MG.
Bolts right into early Minis (like 99% of ours) and no butchery required.
Spins a Mini like a top.
24months warranty too. Sez so on the box... 8)

Won't fit roundnose with an S cooler though, nor will a geMINI one... :cry:

all rear wheel drive gemini starter motors should fit as i'm pretty sure they are all the same, (except for the deisel geminis :cry: ). you definatly don't want one from a RB Gemini as they are the newer front wheel drive versions.
