Hi,
Well, the insurance company has declared my 94 Mini a total loss. I can either settle for $12,000 cash or my car and $9,000. Its decision time I guess. To repair or not gets complicated. I do want my car back, but the $9,000 won't cover the cost of repair unless I can get a really good deal on parts. Has anyone bought large parts, like a subframe, from Mini Spares? I've purchased small parts from them and even with shipping have been way ahead of the usual parts suppliers in the US. Any ideas on where to get parts, even used parts?
I've seen a couple of cars for sale in the $12,000 range that looked interesting, but not close enough to go look at. Any ideas or leads?
Thanks,
Jim
