Came across this, well worth a look. "one man irish mini owners club" (linked below).
Nice little website, for sale section, and some pics of really nice minis. He also says he restores minis and from the pics the work seems to be of a high standard.
Warning though....... do not read the news section if you are easily upset
, there are some very strong opinions expressed

With a warning like that I went straight to the news section
My favourite bit was

I love the way he doesn't see the irony of the statement being posted on the site of a one man car club. At the end of the day he is entitled to his opinion. He has a nice collection of Minis too.

This could be the Autojumble equivalent of "Where's Wally ?"

All uk reg's, copywrite Ray Mullen. Sad that he feels a need to share his opinions, must be lonely.

Guys, the man is entitled to his opinions, the same as everyone else. And as far as I was aware the IMOC Autojumble is open to anyone who wishes to sell or buy Mini items as it will be a benefit to Club members either way.
A fully carbon fiber Mini Marcos shell weighs just 7.25kg.

Apart from Billy has anybody actually saved this website to there favourites. Type of site you visit once out of curiosity and move on. Billy your giving this guy more platform then he deserves, I reckon you've doubled his number of hits. Move on
