Well my guess something very old..vintage 2003/04 after market ? I have never seen any manufacture with these marking that I remember.

They do not appear to by adjustable from the picture. No rod ends or way to change the length.

That logo is from Moss MINI, but I don't think they sell those anymore.

Here's the same logo on their license plate frames...

The key issue is they don't seem to be adjustable and that's the bigger issue for your MINI. You could always replace with and sell them on NAM as a collectors part.

PARTSMANN THE MAN

I looked at one of my 2003 MOSS catalog Summer issue 2003.They closed them out in this issue. Made by there company COBALT. SOLID rear control arms. Two models an adjustable and non adjustable. Close out price was 109.95.


So I guess that answers both question?
