of course, the big advantage if al gets them is that there is no chance of them ever suffering from UV degradation.....
or anyone ever sitting on them!

That's right Rich, I'd never have a glass sunroof. Hellish for the UV they are.

Re: WTH??!?! Have you seen this item on ebay.
Asked the vendor. He very kindly confirmed the missing ID is indeed a bulb. The meeting that decided a 12,000 mile service kit should include 14 engine related parts and a ONE stop/tail light bulb must of been quite a blast...

That's quite some breakdown though Rich if you need new air and oil filters at the roadside...rich@minispares.com wrote:i would say its more of a breakdown kit than a service kit?

why would a service kit have hoses and stuff like that?

Re: WTH??!?! Have you seen this item on ebay.
Something of a curates egg really as it can't quite decide what it is though embossed on the box are the words '12000 mile service parts kit' (Then later 'A Stringer Motors product' - so maybe that's where the blame lies). Stop/tail bulb useful but if it's also intended as a touring kit why not also a headlight, indicator, interior or Instrument / rear number plate bulbs? I know - I'm sure BMC sold you another 'bulb kit' for thatrich@minispares.com wrote:ok, more of a break down / touring kitdodge44 wrote:That's quite some breakdown though Rich if you need new air and oil filters at the roadside...rich@minispares.com wrote:i would say its more of a breakdown kit than a service kit?

Didn't realise it was him until I saw the name!
I knew he had one but didn't know he would sell it!
Might help someone out.

I've reported this one to DVSA. Tired of seeing ringing kits and ringed Minis about!

Shouldn't be beyond them to identify it from the registration date, model/make/ part ID..

Very expensive for a bit of paper and a reproduction vin plate.
Nobody would buy that if they didn't have a shell to mate it to.
