*****Important**** - email contact
I seem to be loosing emails, either not getting through to me, or customers not receiving what I send. Not sure why, but it just proves the internet is not without it's problems. If you have tried to contact me and I have not responded this is why. I have set up a secondary email that you can try which is info @ catmint.biz (remove spaces) if you do not get a response from the normal links on this site
*******IF you have previously asked to be put on our mailing list, could you please ask again as earlier this year the PC went bang and I lost a lot of email details, Thanks *******
Our range has expanded significantly over the last few months, so much so that I do not have enough time to update the complete website, so as a compromise I have produced a comprehensive parts list which can be found at the link below
The Catmint Compressive Parts List
THE MINI STUFF
***THIS SITE IS STILL BEING BUILT, SO NOT ALL LINKS MAY WORK, IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM OR NEED MORE INFO PLEASE CONTACT US***
Minis have played a major part in our lives for over 20 years as daily transport, and the end is not in sight yet. A substantial part of this time has been spent keeping them on the road, from general servicing to major restoration.
Most general parts are still available for them, and rightly so, but when you start venturing into the accurate restoration of the less popular variants then you start to come across supply problems.
I Started out primarily supplying parts for the Elf, Hornet and Pickup variants that you cannot purchase else where, which I have needed for my own restorations. The development and investment that is involved in producing bespoke parts is quite extensive, so I have decided to to make these parts generally available to you to save the hassel of trying to craft them. I also supply other parts that are for use on all Minis, but are not generally available.
In early 2011, the range of parts has expanded significantly to include a range of reproduction Ex Works and Special Tuning parts. Most of these items have been on the market for a number of years and sold by a great friend John Kelly, whom sadly passed away, and I am trying to pickup where he left of.
All parts
are made to the highest standard that I can achieve for a reasonable
cost, and
a lot are tried and tested in our rally
Hornet.
If you require a special part making, then I have metal working and machining facilities readily available, so please feel free to ask. Please also look at the other contacts below as these people can supply a lot of other bits as well.
We are continually developing new products and updating, and if you would like to be kept informed of these developments and added to our update list please drop us an email. This information will only be used for this purpose and not passed onto anyone else. Your privacy is paramount.
POSTAGE/SHIPPING - please read - postage is a flat rate of £4.50 for mainland UK. The Highlands, Islands and N Ireland may incur and additional charge for bigger items. For everywhere else please ask and I will find out how much it will cost before you purchase so you don't get any nasty surprises
