Chester Mini Center has loads of parts, been in a few times in the last week, loads of used parts, looks like almost anything you may need and will also supply new parts. No idea on prices though, i didnt bother to ask. Im getting my brakes sorted by them on wednesday and they even gave me a free set of 12" wheels and 2 usable tyres and are happy to talk to you about your needs (good for somebody that has no clue like me ;) )

Very nice mate :D You'll have to post some pictures of the others.
Do you happen to know how many RSP's are still out there?

I know the register well - have you registered your car? There is also a good forum for the RSP's on www.specialistminiforums.com.

That link says 1050 in the UK. I wonder how many are left?
coopersean

I believe there are about 300 registered, so I would have thought around 500 or so in the UK?

Very nice

Cheers for that mate, will have a look.

Good luck with the re-builds.

How are you at finding bits, been trying to track down an original belt park (the clip thing that your seat belt end goes in, when not using it.

Any idea would be a great help.:)

Found these on ebay, but it may be worth considering buying new, as you can never know the history of second hand stuuf, and it is a safety item after all...

Try Somerford's

Thanks for that.:)

Might have to buy a set.

Sadly it is the plastic clip that has snapped off at the top, if you look at the original static 3 point rear diagram pdf from Somerford it is not no.32, but the clip just below that which is not numbered.
